Hamstring Strain
Sub-4 Musculoskeletal Biomechanics Clinic in Staffordshire, West Midlands
Hamstring Strain
Hamstring Strain, or hamstring tear injury also occasionally called a pulled hamstring, happens when one or more of the hamstring muscle group suffer extreme mechanical trauma. Depending on the injury, the hamstring can tear partially or completely.
Most torn hamstrings are caused by extreme extending and stretching during sport. The injury is very common with people who play sports like Football and Rugby.
If you’ve torn your hamstring in the past, there’s a likelihood you will tear it again. The risk is much higher if you do intense activity before you’re injury is healed. Training too hard can overload your hamstring muscles and cause a tear.
