A muscle fiber tear can be quite uncomfortable... hematomas, pain, and limitations as far as the function of the muscle is concerned.
Basically, you can get a tear like this on any athletic occasion, but there are, of course, conditions that favor it.
And these are 3 of the most common causes of muscle fiber tear:
-> When the muscles are not properly warmed up or cooled down, by cold outside for example.
-> Fatigue or overuse of a muscle.
-> Injuries that are older but have not healed properly.
