During last night's (crisp) evening tennis practice, I pulled my right hamstring. Mad

Any advice on how long should I lay off it? Are there any stretches I should perform to help it recover faster? Or is it best to just leave it alone? Thanks!

hey sonny, look at my thread about stretching, cheryl posted some nice links to stretches. I would think that you would stretch that hammie gently, no sense in letting it tighten up on you. gently is the keyword though.
