Would love to know if anyone who kicked this injury by Philadelphia Physical therapists or sports groups? I have two years of. High hamstring/ glute/ groin pain with no improvement. Diagnosis has been total atrophy of periformis muscle and high hamstring partial tears. Thank you.
Check out Drexel University, they have two clinics in Philadelphia. One in Center City and the other is in University City at their rec center. They also perform gait analyses at their center city clinic.
I read through this whole thread and while there was some great info. On treatments, there wasn't anything on what kinds of cross training could be done while the hamstring is healing. I'm guessing biking might aggravate it from the sitting, but what about the
Elliptical? I can't swim well so that's out of the question. Thanks

Does anyone only get higher hamstring pain AFTER stretching?
I get this pain in the high hamstring muscle belly (not quite as high as the “yoga butt” spot.
I will get it from Romanian Deadlifts and any kind of isometrically or eccentrically contracted stretching.
I don’t get it during passive stretching. I don’t get it during running. I don’t get it during any weight lifting other than the RDLs like I mentioned.
It’s only several hours after that it starts and it lasts 2-3 days, and only hurts when I get into atleast a mildly stretched position.
This has been going on for about 8 months and at first ANY stretching would cause the pain for up to 10 days, so it’s gotten better but idk what’s going on.
It stemmed from playing basketball after a stretching and lower body workout session, but I never felt pain or a pop during that.
I'd been having a hamstring injury for three years that prevented me from running, and even prevented me from consistently going on walks. It spread to my knee and gluts, which made it difficult to stand or walk for more than a few minutes. For a few months due to the pain, I had to hold onto a cart when shopping.
Earlier this year I replaced trying to walk for exercise, with using a Concept2 Skierg. Over the first few weeks the pain started going away, and now it is completely gone. I'm getting plenty of exercise, so still having tried to run or go for long walks, but have started walking on the treadmill again to warm up for using the ski machine.
I highly recommend to use one for anyone who's a runner, and for anyone who has a hamstring, knee or glut injury.
I found the following article in a post on these boards a few months ago, and within a month, cleared up years of hamstring/knee pain. Resist the treadmill gently, facing backwards, slow speed, alternate legs every minute.

Here it's been about 6 years, my upper hamstring hurts at times. It also tingles. I was a cheerleader back in school, when I injuried my hamstring, it kept me down for a couple days and I went back to school barley could walk. I have not seen a therapist but after reading most of the comments I think I will see one.
Can anyone provide a recommendation in New York City for ART/deep tissue massage?
I have been dealing with high hamstring/ischial tuberosity/glute issue for a year. Tried graston, cortisone (shots - not the patch), shock wave, acupuncture and, of course, endless PT, but no luck.
