Cause
Hamstrings are the group of strong muscles on either side of the knee. They can be strained when jogging or playing soccer. Excessive stretching may injure or even tear the muscles apart.
Symptoms and Diagnosis
Pain in the back of the leg; inability to jog or, if severe, to walk.
Procedures and Treatments
As most hamstring stains involve just a partial tear, you need only rest and apply ice to the affected area.
