Typical symptoms may include pain in the affected muscle during use and sometimes also at rest; swelling and bruising in the affected area; and muscle spasms (painful muscle contractions). <br \/>  Most cases can be treated with PRICE (Protection, Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) and pain relievers. <br \/>  A doctor may also recommend physical therapy or immobilizing the affected area with a splint, brace, or cast.
