I haven't pulled the muscles in my hamstrings yet, but I once pulled every muscle in my right arm. I took ibuprofen for the swelling (I was told by my dr. to take 800mg and drink alot of water every 6-8 hrs., but please note I am NOT a doctor), and rotated hot and cold compresses. I tried to wait it out, but ended up going to the emergency room. They put my arm in a sling, and gave me muscle relaxers to help with the pain, as well as anti-inflammatory medication. I was told to move it a bit, so the muscles didn't stiffen up, but also to really limit how much I used it. That's not something you can do with your legs unless you have a wheelchair handy, so I'm sorry, but you may have to bite the bullet and see a doctor. UNLESS, you know one and he will call in something for you (a prescription).  If you have access to a hot tub or sauna, you may try that, or just taking a very warm bath. Hope you feel better!

Massage the areas that are in pain, and apply heat. Whatever you do, do NOT apply cold or the muscles will tighten there and cause even graeter pain. A relaxing bath may help, as well as normal exercise. Hope it helps!

Hot water bottle (or purring cat) sometimes helps.  If I'm not in horrible pain, a walk seems to work wonders, too.  I find coffee and chocolate makes it worse on the first couple of days, which makes me sad, because I live on those basic foods.  *lol*\n\nHopefully you'll feel better soon.

if you have a pain that lasts more than a couple of days, go see a doctor, because it could be more dangerous than you think. but if you are able to move around and it just hurts when you sit in a certain position or sit for to long, try a back patch. they work pretty well. also try the cold/hot. try a cold patch then a hot patch and continue to alter it. also try taking hot showers and letting the water roll down your back. you are also try sleeping on your side instead on your back, and then again you can try sleeping on the floor for a few nights. if you don't like sleeping on the floor, get a piece of wood (old door) and place between your mattress and spring, to give you extra support. try to take it easy for a while. it better to take care of it now than later.

Try an over-the-counter medication like Midol, or you can ask you pharmacist to recommend an over the counter medication. If the pain persists, get your doctor to prescribe you medication for the pain. Also, you might try a heating pad and/or a shot of whiskey.

Get a neck/back rub done. Dont go for medication. \n\nYour nerve is tense, only a massage will help. Medication will temporarily dull the pain but will not cure the problem. \n\nYou need to get a physical massage done to help relieve the muscle.

Tell yourself its something that has to be done and do it. It hurts especially if you loved them, but it can be done. Will power and discipline.

U want to pretend its not hurting u? Smiling when peoples are around? Talking like they are not hurting u in some ways? Well, thats kinda hard thing.. I always do that when I don't want them to think that I am week, I am not good enough in some situations, that I am no longer on standing on my feet...\n\nits difficult.. but u can smile to them, talk and act naturally like ordinary day.. no hurt.. no pain.. just hold ur anger.. the pain.. the hurt.. take deep breath while doing that... think ur smart, ur stronger than u know, ur free, its not hurting u, its okay.. everyhting is fine.. think about that..\n\nafter that u will feel "yes, I did it" but after a while.. u will feel empty.. sad.. lonely.. \n\nwhat i am trying to tell u is.. be urself... express what u feel.. think good.. always do the right thing..\n\ngood luck!

There really isn't much you can do. The pain should not be so bad that it's unbearable. If it is, you should contact your doctor. If it's uncomfortable and a little sore, a little ibuprofen should do the trick.

Its you who will decide how long you will let the hurt and pain be inside you. If you have the will, and the strength to move on in life, forget the past and start today as if you are born once more, Iam sure it wont take long. Its not that easy either. It may seem as if its ''forever'', and it will hurt you a lot trying to do it, but then thats the only way. Cry, cry it out when it pains. Dont suppress yourself. You will feel relieved. Get yourself involved, in whatever it is that you may have longed to do and...slowly you'll see happier and looking back with a smile.\n\ngood luck.

To put yourself first and stop worry about the person that hurt you.  The only person that you have worry about is your feelings and making yourself whole again.  Everyone in life makes choices and you have to deal with them and realize that you can move on and be happy on your own.   And like momma always says LIFE is not fair. \n\nIt also take alot of time so don't think the pain will go away just stay focused on YOU! \nI wish you better days!

Because your endorphins kick in and rush to the site of the wound...taking away the focus for a moment of the actual problem.  You may want to find another outlet for your pain, one that can help you overcome it permanantly instead of fleetingly.  Maybe try releasing the pain through written word or music.  These really helped me when I was doing the same.
