How To Heal A Popped Leg So That I Can Do Splits To Cheer A Football Match?

Hi, I did the splits yesterday before cheering at my first football game and I heard a pop in my right leg. It hurt really bad and currently does when I attempt the splits, but I can t do the splits now because of the pain in my leg. What is the fastest way to make it heal?

Hello,

Pop in the leg might be due to a muscle sprain or a tear. This needs proper rest for a few days and you can do a hot compress and get an oral muscle relaxant prescribed for relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Praveen Tayal, Orthopaedic Surgeon
