Hamstring Strains Tusmore
SA Running Injury Clinic is proud to offer care and treatment for hamstring strain sufferers in Tusmore and neighbouring areas. A hamstring strain is a prevalent leg injury involving a tear in one or more of the hamstring muscles. It typically occurs during activities like sprinting or kicking. Hamstring strains can vary from mild to very severe, including a complete muscle tear.
Hamstring strains result from poor timing-intermuscular coordination and lack of eccentric strength in the hamstring muscles.
Causes of Hamstring Strains
Other contributing factors to hamstring strains are:
- Overstriding while walking or running
- Inadequate pelvic control
- Insufficient warm-up
- Hamstring muscles becoming overly fatigued
- Wet slippery playing surface will put more strain on the hamstring due to slipping
