Hamstring Strain:
  • A hamstring strain is a common injury characterized by the stretching or tearing of muscle fibers within the hamstring muscle group, which is located in the back of the thigh.
  • It is often referred to as a "pulled hamstring."
  • Strains are typically graded into three categories: Grade 1 (mild), Grade 2 (moderate), and Grade 3 (severe), based on the extent of muscle damage.
  • In a mild strain (Grade 1), there is minimal damage to the muscle fibers, causing mild discomfort and often allowing for relatively quick recovery.
  • In a moderate strain (Grade 2), there is more significant damage, leading to moderate pain, swelling, and a longer recovery period.
  • Severe strains (Grade 3) involve a substantial tear of the muscle, resulting in severe pain, swelling, and potential loss of function.

Is it the same leg that he suffered the ACL?

I would not rush him back - it’s a marathon not a sprint
