When doctor diagnosed with suspected partial tear of my hamstring, by my knee. was put into a knee stabilizer and using crutches. how pain feels worse?

Could be: deep vein thrombophlebitis, which could lead to pulmonary embolism, so you should consult with your doctor again. Especially if you have associated swelling.
