Skeletal muscle has a high potential for regeneration and healing. After injuries to this tissue the treatment should focus on the limitation of the injury and optimization of the inherent regeneration capacity. This article discusses the prevalence of muscle injuries in soccer including diagnoses and complications, data from basic science, and therapeutic possibilities.
