lower hamstring tendinopathy

[Nordic Athletics]

Hi
Thank you for your reply

The pain is always on the outside and I don't get any numbness/tingling or sharp/shooting pains down the legs.

I do get some lower back pain sometimes but I have always had tight hamstrings

I am grateful for any help and advise


Thanks

Hey,

Does the pain increase immediately when sit down or does it come after a while? Is the pain during the actual sitting or can you feel it more when you get up after sitting?

When you walk/run, is there any sharp pains or just the burning sensation?

When you stretch the hamstrings do you keep your foot neutral? If you try to point your foot down (plantar flexion of the foot) vs. up (dorsal flexion) does that make a difference on your pain?

Take care!

Hi Eric

The pain does not start straight away when I'm sitting it gradually increases and this is the same when I'm walking or running the burning sensation gradually comes on.

I have tried both methods of stretching and I get less pain when I stretch with my foot in a natural position.

Many Thanks
James
