What is the most effective treatment for a pulled muscle?
There is no medicine for it but you could try putting a cold clothe (soaked in cold water) to stop the swelling or bruise and apply to sore arrea if you have that or you could put a hot clothe (soaked in hot water) to calm it down on sore arrea. I'd say the best thing you can do for that would be by stretching. But sometimes that can make it worse but it all depends on how sore it is. Good luck
