if its inflammed he probably pulled it to begin with. he over worked it or well pulled it. it'll get better, give him some ibuprofin and he'll live. its nothing bad or serious.

Inflammation is like when the affected muscle swells up. A pulled muscle is when the muscle moves the wrong way, you could say. Inflammation can be caused by a variety of things, including allergic reactions and bug bites, but these cases are usually minor.

The inflamation is from over use. A pulled muscle involves some dammage to the bursa and tendon, they can be streched too far.
