The hamstrings include three separate muscles (semitendinosus, semimembranosus and biceps femoris) that run along the back of the hip and knee joints. Collectively, they function to extend the hip and flex the knee during activities such as running and jumping. They originate on a part of the pelvis called the ischial tuberosity, a prominence that can be felt as the bony part of the buttock when you sit down on a hard surface. Hamstring injuries or tears are diagnosed by combining the patient’s story of an acute or chronic injury and clinical symptoms (pain, weakness, deformity) with MRI findings indicative of tendon degeneration, partial thickness tearing, or complete tearing.
