Sprain: This depends on many things. Understanding your height compared to weight would be tremendously useful to understand the mechanics at hand. As an initial presentation this is most likely to be a sprain. Give it a week of antiinflammatories and rest. Start hamstring stretches and core strengthening within 48 hours and continue this indefinitely. Best of luck!
