I have pulled my hamstring 5 times this year alone, same one, in exactly the same place. I did it in January, wasn't too bad so played football again the week after and it happened again. I had 4 weeks off, played for 5 weeks before it pulled again. 3 weeks later happened again. I gave it total rest for 12 weeks but first time sprinting it happened again.

Can there be a particular reason for this? The unusual thing is that it seems to happen when contracting rather than when it is stretching. Its almost like that one particular area knots and damages it. Its in the lower outside part of my right hamstring.

I don't know what you're expecting, but the closest to a miracle diagnosis I could guess at is:

- Your glute's probably not firing.

Thanks.

I kept pulling my hams when i was stone loading.
I had `hot stone treatment` & this worked really
well for me :023:
