Dr. Allan Tissenbaum answered

Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Yes: A strain is usually just an overuse injury, it should heal up with rest and strengthening and you should be able to get back to running, it is important that you attempt to figure out what biomechanically caused this injury in the first place.
