A member asked:
What would be the best treatment for a torn or strained muscle in the upper stomach area?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rest: The only answer for that type of sprain or tear is time and rest for the muscle. When the injury first occurs ice and laying at can help minimize the pain and swelling.
