B-ultrasound can detect muscle injuries. During the examination, patients can observe a hematoma with clearly defined borders and visible blood streaks. Patients may receive massage therapy, and should rest during the acute phase to avoid strenuous exercise involving the affected limb. Consuming more high-protein, vitamin-rich foods can enhance nutrition and promote recovery.
