Definition of Hamstring Strain
Hamstring injuries are a tear or strain to the muscle or tendon structure in either of the three hamstring muscles (bicep femoris, semitendinosus or semimembranosus). They are the most common cause of injury in the AFL and are associated with the greatest loss of player game time. They continue to increase in sports despite extensive research and investigations. They usually occur during a deceleration action during sprinting and most likely towards the end of playing time.
The most significant risk factor for injury is previous hamstring injury.
Previous injury is often associated with associated formation of scar tissue.
The high association with previous injury highlights the need for effective treatment and more focused long term rehabilitation plans. There has also been significant evidence for prevention programs that address modifiable risk factors.
What are the Symptoms of Hamstring Strain?
Hamstring strains vary greatly. You can have a mild strain, up to a grade 3 muscle tear. The symptoms are variable. You may experience a very sharp intense pain with running, or just a dull ache that builds up. Some people describe a pinching sensation. Either way, you will feel a loss of power, loss of explosiveness, pain on resisted muscle use and poor athletic performance.
