Suggest Treatment For Pain In Knee And Thigh After An Injury

While attempting box splits a few months ago, I felt & sharp, almost tearing sensation on the back of my left thigh just behind & slightly above the knee. I rested it for a couple of weeks, but every time I try & stretch the area the pain seems to come back. Now though my knee is actually aching & I seem to be getting twinges up the entire back/inside of my thigh. What can I do to try & sort the problem please?

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Dear Sir/Madam
I have gone through your query and read your symptoms.
In my opinion, you have sprained your muscle, take rest, Tab Paracetamol 500 mg three times a day, hot compresses, and see if these symptoms improve, if you have no relief then you will need to see your GP.
I hope that answers your query. If your want any more clarification, contact me back.
