Hamstring strain!

Hi everyone!

Just wondering if anyone can help me! Around two weeks ago I strained both my hamstrings. Admittedly the days before then I was stretching frequently throughout the day (without warming up much stupidly) and may have overstretched (esp right). At first there was a really small dull ache but since then (even when discontinuing with stretches and other strenuous forms a lot of activity) the discomfort has increased a little gradually and is still lingering. On a pain scale now I’d say 3 out of 10.

There hasn’t been any bruising at all and I’ve been able to walk properly, although I do notice some discomfort walking. Right now I am feeling tenderness in the Mid Semitendonous region and discomfort when sitting.

I was thinking of seeing a physio (which may take a couple of weeks) and I’ve read to limit any kind of activity, but until then should I be walking at all? Would it exacerbate the problem? What else should I and not be do?

Thanks for any advice.
