Both sprains and strains are common injuries, but they’re not the same. A sprain happens when you stretch or tear a ligament, which is the tissue that connects bones at a joint.

Both injuries can cause pain and swelling, but sprains might also cause bruising. Resting the injured area, applying ice, and elevating it can help. If the injury is severe, you may need to see a doctor.
