Hamstring pain

2017-12-10 12:00:35
I'm having hamstring pain after sitting for long hours ( while driving/ at work). The problem doesn't persist while walking/ running. I'm not able to understand whether it is a cramp or strain or anything else. When I showed it to a physio he used his elbows to massage the pain which didn't help. Please tell me what to do
