Hi Guys,

I've been a lurker for a long time.

Was playing football 1.5 weeks ago and tore\strained my hamstring (short head). Am having had some pretty intense physio (massage,ultrasound etc) and it is getting better and stronger slowly . The bruise started to come out about 4 days ago but nowhere near the tear is. The bruise runs from my calf muscle (yellow, light purple) up to just about middle of my upper leg. The worst is black\deep red but it doesn't even hurt there. Most of the back of my leg is bruised all apart from where it actually hurts.

- Is this normal - my physio says it is but I still don't understand how my entire leg can be bruised - I guess its is just freaking me out a little. ?

Has anyone else had this?

thanks
