Tendons hold muscles to bones and ligaments hold bones together.
If not properly managed soft-tissue injuries can cause stiffness, pain, and eventually disability. So let's talk about what happens when you over-do. Muscle soreness may appear 48 hours after an injury and may last for several days. You always hope that muscle soreness will just pass. If it doesn't go away within 2 to 3 days, you should be evaluated for a more serious injury, such as a sprain or strain.
