This document discusses hamstring injuries, which are very common in sports. It notes that previous hamstring injury is a major risk factor, and that injuries typically cause players to miss around 3 matches. When evaluating hamstring pain, clinicians should examine biomechanics in the tibiofibular joint, sacroiliac joint, and lumbar spine, as well as muscular factors like strength, length, and trigger points. Treatment of hamstring injuries should address underlying contributing factors beyond just the hamstrings.
