A member asked:
What ligament (or tendon) attaches your hamstring to your knee?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hamstring tendons: These are about 4 muscles which make up the hamstrings, which attach to the pelvic bone near the hip and to the upper end of the tibia ( main leg bone). The tendons are named after the name of the muscles, ie, adductor longus & magnus; semitendinosis and semimembranosis.
