Hamstring Strains Myrtle Bank
At SA Running Injury Clinic, we proudly provide care and treatment for those suffering from hamstring strains in Myrtle Bank 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.
Hamstring strains result from poor timing-intermuscular coordination and lack of eccentric strength in the hamstring muscles.
Reasons for Hamstring Strains
Other contributing factors to hamstring strains are:
- Overstriding while walking or running
- Lack of pelvic control
- Lack of proper warm-up
- Hamstring muscles becoming overly fatigued
- Slippery, wet playing surfaces put additional strain on the hamstring due to slipping
