Lots of people who have sudden Hamstring pain assume they have torn their hamstring or "pulled a hamstring". This video is here to help clear up any questions people might have about whether or not they tore their hamstrings! A "pulling" sensation in the hamstring doesn't necessarily mean that the hamstring is torn.
If you are worried that you have a torn hamstring, this video helps explain to you how to tell if it's likely a tear, or what else it could be. For this and other videos about Hamstring Strains, Tears or other Sports Injuries, subscribe to DASH Chiropractic on KZbin!

Back in 2008, during a track workout, I heard a pop in my hamstring. I was told to stretch and eventually was able to continue the workout and keep running that season. It wasn't until years later that I "ran" into the same issue. 🤭😄 Very much like the first time, I was sprinting and heard a pop in the same hamstring while running. I later noticed that I could run long distances without it being an issue. (I ran 8 miles yesterday). So it only seems to happen when sprinting. Do you have any idea what the issue might be?

I don’t have the swelling or bruises but I feel like it’s contracted and hurts to use in both legs I think it happened while I was working out bcs I havent ran or sprinted in a while what should I do 😫😫 muscle death that was scary omg

I took Ciproloxcin, and it caused all kinds of problems with Muscle, tendon, ligaments, and nerve damage. looking for advice on where to turn. My kneecap pops, have shooting pain coming from my knee up, and down my legs. Read the site effects of this medication before you take it, it effects everyone differently.

I was at football practice and I took a step and went down and heard a pop in my left hamstring, I could walk mostly fine, slight pain to strech it and I can limited run with some pain. Pain prob like 2/10, but i heard a pop so im wondering if i did something.

[@dashchiropractic7240]

I'd look for some bruising or swelling in the region.

I was running felt a pop. Hopped a couple steps. And a lot of swelling. I can walk on in but it’s a bad limp. And if I turn my body while me foots planted. Severe pain. Amy advice. Trying to save a trip to the doctor.

Do not use NSAIDs for the first 3 days you should elevate the hip above chest level and use ice packs every few hours and also use an Epsom salt bath in hot water and lots of massaging through the painful areas, want natural inflammation to build up in a car over the first few days then you can get a powerful NSAID on day four or five. Blood flow and minor movements are key but don't over stretch it

[@xMJOBxFISHx]

this just happened to me. what ended up happening to you and how did the process go?

[@xMJOBxFISHx]

i just had the exact same thing happen to me. Did you need to go got the doctor and do you know what actually happened? what was the long term process for you?

[@devrocha3979]

I feel like she’s mad at me

[@VLombardi01]

You didn’t mention a strain. Is that different then a torn muscle?

[@dashchiropractic7240]

With strains there are the 3 grades, with grades 2 & 3 (more severe) being tears. Grade 1 strains are often over diagnosed, as there needs to be a legitimate “over”load and mechanism of injury, as well as some swelling, etc. present. Does that make sense?

[@kevinstarski1598]

Is that a mustache or bad light?

[@PowerFromAbove]

Gee how dense can people be? You really need a video to tell you if it's a muscle tear when you hear a loud explosive pop in the inability to straighten out your leg immediately afterwards?

[@johnsturgess8264]

Not all as clever as you obviously you clown 😂

[@O_ORashad]

There are so many things that could happen to you that would cause those exact same issues without you actually tearing your muscle. Maybe you're the one who's dense here.
