What to do about hamstring pain

Hamstring pain is usually caused by muscle strain due to exertion, over-exercise or sudden strain during exercise, and can be treated by rest, physical therapy and oral medication. 1. Reduce exercise and rest more: pain caused by over-exercise and exertion needs to be avoided by avoiding sports, heavy physical labor, etc., and resting for 1~2 weeks. 2. Physical therapy: local hot compresses and massage therapy can be used to promote blood circulation and help relieve pain. 3. Oral medication: If the pain is intolerable, oral pain medication such as ibuprofen can also be taken for treatment. If you are diagnosed with popliteal pain, it is recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment, do not self-judgment and delay the condition.
