Because of my other hammie I can't run, jump, walk too much and sit only on cushions.  This PHT on the right side started after doing hamstring exercises!  Exercises, that should heal or prevent from PHT!  Single leg elevated hip thrust and single leg glute bridges with straight legs.  I never had any tendon problems before my injury 2 years ago on my left leg.  So how can these exercises cause PHT on a healthy leg??  And what should I do for rehab when PT exercises cause PHT?" Brodie illuminates the confusion of this scenario along with helpful tips in this situation.

Stretching was once a common treatment option for this condition but as our understanding has changed, so has the management. But a lot of people with PHT need to return to stretching. Whether it is a pilates or yoga class or stretching without their chosen sport or physical activity. In addition, stretching the hamstring is a part of everyday life. Bending forward to put on shoes or picking something up off the floor is required but can sometimes cause discomfort.
