More than half of a professional football team’s medical team’s time (team doctor, physiotherapist, masseur) is spent treating hamstring injuries. In the 2022-2023 season, the total cost of hamstring injuries in the Premier League was over 75 million pounds.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

What is Hamstring?<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

The hamstring muscle <\/span><\/strong>has 3 in each leg. It is also called the upper back muscle group. These are the semitendinosus, semimembranosus and biceps femoris muscles. The hamstring muscles are large muscles that attach to the pelvis, run down the back of the thigh, cross the knee and attach to the upper end of the lower leg bones.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The hamstring muscles are large muscles that attach to the pelvis, run down the back of the thigh, cross the knee and attach to the upper end of the lower leg bones.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\n

As these muscles get closer to the hip and knee joint, they turn into tendons and attach to the bones. These muscles allow us to extend the leg and bend the knee. The hamstring muscles are balanced by the quadriceps muscles on the front of the thighs. The strength and stability of the knees are controlled by these Quadriceps – Hamstring muscle groups.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

What is Hamstring Injury, Tear?<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

Hamstring injury tears are tears of one or more of the hamstring tendons. They are common muscle strain injuries due to overload and overuse during training or a match.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\n

At first, the muscle fibers and\/or tendon are stretched and injured as a result of muscle stretching or hamstring pulling (1st-2nd degree injury). If the strain continues, a tear occurs in the muscle fibers or tendon.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
