Can a strained muscle send pain in other parts of the body. Like soreness in other muscles far away from the initial injury?

It depends.

Pain radiation is unusual in muscular injuries.
It is possible to injure two or more muscles or joints at the same time.
Limping, or carrying yourself differently can put strain on joints in other parts of the body, causing them to stiffen up and become painful.

Yes. It's because the bodys' natural response to an injury is to use it less.Therefore it becomes nessesary for other muscles to pick up the slack {so to speak}.Generally the muscles that do work to correct the strain {lower calf strain:thigh, knee,ankle all come in to play} become sore because of unusual use. A535 or Myoflex will help in alot of instances just to ease the ache and soreness of the "new" muscles, while direct heat {15 mins. on, 20 mins. off} accompanied by some sort of brace or bandage {depending on where the injury is}will help the strained muscle.Hope this could help.

Protect the strained muscle from extra harm. Rest the strained muscle. Avoid the pursuits that precipitated the stress and different pursuits which are painful. Ice the muscle discipline (quarter-hour each and every hour at the same time conscious). Ice is an overly mighty anti inflammatory and agony-relieving agent. Small ice packs, corresponding to applications of frozen greens or water frozen in foam espresso cups, carried out to the discipline might support scale down irritation. Compression is usually a lightly carried out with an Ace or different elastic bandage, which will furnish each aid and scale down swelling. Do now not wrap tightly. Elevate the injured discipline to scale down swelling. Prop up a strained leg muscle at the same time sitting, for illustration.

yes it can it really depends on the initial injury though say for instance you sprined your ankle and are using crutches it is very
normal to have muscle soreness and pain from using them like neck pain shoulder pain and evn some back pain. I recommend some ibuprophen, rest and some ice if needed.
