im 16. about a month ago, i noticed that whenever i sat down i would get a pain on the back of my upper left leg. the pain only lasted for about 2 days. ever sence, ive felt a bump on my hamstring. it is small and fells smooth. i messed with it a little bit and it has caused some pain. ive hurt my hamstring multiple times, but not severe enough that i needed to see a doctor. what can it be?
Hello, Your symptoms could be related to a pinched nerve or a muscle pain. For this reason, if this situation persists, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and performing a lumbar vertebral column X-ray study and inflammation tests (complete blood count, PCR, ESR). In the meantime, I would recommend regular physical exercise (stretching) and avoiding weight lifting or prolonged standing up or sitting position. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
