How long does tight hamstring generally last in mid thigh above knee? one week now. rt. leg gets tight at mile 2. should i consider dry needling?

RICE: Rest, ice, compression, elevation. You should also consider foam rolling and physical therapy, stretching. Rest is the best so do low impact such as swimming or cycling as you rehab. Good luck.
