A member asked:

Do injured muscles contract if you try to use them? e.g. injured soleus, if try to run--> foot inverts

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Bryan Mohr answered

Depends: See a podiatrist- if a muscle is injured severily, it will stop working properly. Might need a brace to help control inversion.
