Hello,
Thanks for writing to us
You need to provide adequate rest to the area. Icing and talking mild pain killers with muscle relaxants will help. Physical modality for 2 weeks and then start exercise for hamstring stretching under supervision.
Hope this helps you. Let me know if you have any more concern.
Wishing you good health...
Regards.
