Let's at first hope to you a full fast recovery,

Now ,In addition to above ,Generally

-be sure there is no neurological problems with sicatic nerve (supplying hamstring and adductor magnus muscle),

-full perfect biomechanic assessment.

-look for any visceral problems as burning urination,...

-how is your weight looks like!

Thanks, all, for the advice and support.

sharileedahl: After three visits to the therapist I've learned many good exercises and stretches. The therapist is doing a lot of trigger point work on muscles on my psoas, hips, adductors, buttocks and pelvic floor. I'm foamrolling and/or stretching my back, L5S1 gap, psoas, and thigh muscles (like this one: YouTube - Hamstring myofascial release: BodySpex fitness with Jai). Lying on my back with my feet on a volley ball and my arms and shoulders off the ground, I'm doing hamstring curls and working up to one-legged bridges at various angles. (I'll switch to an exercise ball once it arrives in the mail.)

I'm working in aquatic buttkicks, distance running and this hamstring-fall thing (YouTube - Eccentric hamstring exercise) for fun.

rohitsawalkar.physio: I think a lot of the stuff mentioned above is eccentric. If you have any other suggestions please let me know! I keep better hydrated than most and I'll keep vigilant on this front.

junior_physiotherapist: I'll try to schedule a biomechanics assessment for a couple weeks from now, once I can run with some confidence. Urination feel fine and I don't think it's much nerve stuff since I can feel the muscle damage and tightness. But I am making it a priority to loosen up my L5S1 gap, which I hope will help with any potential nerve issues. I'm slender, 5'11'' and 158lbs. I'll drop 5 or so in the next month (I just took a big test, studying for which put a few pounds on me) and my target weight is around 150lbs.

Many thanks, again. Let me know if you have any further thoughts. I'll keep you updated.

Hey Guys

I know its bad form to jump on forums and post links to products and stuff but I was searching around to see what was on the net for hamstring injuries and rehab and found this, I think it may be of use to you. My name is Lauren, I blog at LaurensFitness.com, my Dad has written an ebook on Hamstring Rehabilitation, it's pretty comprehensive, hes pretty experienced in the industry.

I don't want to sell it to you so just check it out yourself. Here is the sales page for the Hamstring Rehab Manual, which we had to make for clickbank....and you can also go here which the bertolacci.com.au website and check out more Hamstring rehab info for free, or head to his blog at loris bertolacci

OK I know a lot of info there but I reckon it might be exactly what you are looking for, how to stop hamstring recurrence injuries. If you don't want the ebook there is plenty of info on the bertolacci site! Hope it helps.

Cheers
