Hamstring Strains Dulwich
At SA Running Injury Clinic, we proudly provide care and treatment for those suffering from hamstring strains in Dulwich and surrounding communities. Hamstring strain is a common leg injury that involves tearing one or more hamstring muscles. This injury usually occurs during sprinting or kicking activities. The severity of a hamstring strain can range from mild to very severe, with the potential for a complete muscle tear.
Poor timing-intermuscular coordination and insufficient eccentric strength in the hamstring muscles are the primary causes of hamstring strains.
Causes of Hamstring Strains
Other contributing factors to hamstring strains are:
- Overstriding while walking or running
- Poor pelvic control
- Improper warm-up
- Excessive fatigue in the hamstring muscles
- Wet, slippery playing surfaces cause more strain on the hamstring because of slipping
