Commonly asked questions
To test for proximal hamstring tendinopathy, healthcare professionals use three pain provocation tests: the Puranen-Orava Test, the Bent Knee Stretch Test, and palpation of the hamstring tendon.
Chronic hamstring tendinopathy can be managed effectively with a combination of rest, physical therapy, and other non-invasive treatments, but complete recovery may take time and depend on adherence to the treatment plan. There are also surgical options for it.
