What can i do at home to treat a hamsring tear
A doctor has provided 1 answer
RICE: Rest, Ice, Compression & Elevation is usual/initial advice for most injuries. Failing that, go see your Family Doc or Sports Med doc to confirm diagnosis. May need crutches to keep from aggravating muscle in order to allow it to heal.
