Medical
Definition: The hamstring consists of three muscle groups, including
the semimembranosus, semitendinousus, and the biceps femoris. A hamstring
strain occurs when excessive or repetitive stress causes tearing of the
muscle fibers in the hamstring.
Causes: Tight hamstring muscles, muscle imbalance, sudden movement,
and repetitive strain are all common types of hamstring injuries.
Symptoms: A sharp pain may be felt in the hamstring when a serious
strain or tear occurs. This often happens during such action as an explosive
move in basketball or a quick sprint. If you feel a deep ache in the hamstring
area it may be a less severe strain or minor tear.
Recommended Treatment: See
a medical professional for an evaluation. Rest leg as much as possible
and ice after any activity to promote healing. Use a brace when
participating in any strenuous activity to reduce stress to area.
Stretch the hamstring muscles as long as stretching causes no pain.
