Keep training-Strec: Take it slow. Stretch a lot. Use ice after working out.

Return to MD: Some hamstring strains in teenagers are more than just the typical muscle strain. Was it initially evaluated by a sports specialist with x-rays? If not, then you may need this type of eval. Some hamstring injuries involve an avulsion fracture of the growth plate from the ischium, which could require surgery.
