    Pulled Hamstring

    Hi guys, I'm new to this site and well I was hoping for some advice. I pulled my left hamstring 2 weeks ago. Before that about 2 months before I felt a twinge and after a week resuming my sport.

    My physio told me that I had a grade 1 tear in my left tendon upper (near the buttucks) he has been giving me a rub, ultrasound and acupuncture 3 times a week.

    He has told me that my left leg is longer than my right by approx 1cm and that i would need insoles. Are they necessary and what do they do?

    He has also been telling me to apply Wikipedia reference-linkanti-inflammatory gel on it and also ice 4 times aday. I thought that afer first 48 hrs heat is applied is it not?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you
