Towel Hamstring Stretch
Lie on the back, supporting the thigh with the hand or with a towel wrapped around it..
Slowly straighten the knee until a stretch is felt in the back of the thigh, trying to get the bottom of the foot to face the ceiling, one leg at a time.
Hold the position initially for 10 seconds, and gradually work up to 20 to 30 seconds.
Seated Hamstring Stretch
While sitting at the edge of a chair, straighten one leg in front of the body with the heel on the floor.
Then, sit up straight and try pushing the navel towards the thigh without leaning the trunk of the body forwards.
Hold this stretch for 30 seconds
Repeat 3 times for each leg.

Hello there.
I can understand your concern.
See, the history you have provided is very limited.
Where exactly is the pain?
Since when is it?
How do you think it started?
Any history of trauma/injury?
What did the doctors say after examination?
Any tests conducted?
If yes, then what are the results?
Any medications he is on?
Any history of diabetes or hypertension?
These are just a few things which are needed to know.
After this, we need to correlate with examination findings and tests.
So consult a orthopedician in person for further evaluation and management.
Best regards.
Dr. Anil Kumar Jain.
