Lump on hamstring

March 18, 2019

hello. help please.

2 days ago i realised there is a small (somewhere around as big as hazelnut) bump on my hamstring (right leg, outer side). I don’t know if it is muscle torn or whatever.

I know for sure that it appeared in one night and feel no pain.

What should i do and can i continue working out?

Hi Gunel

Yes – keep going!

You generally know when you’ve torn a hamstring – mostly when over stretching and it’s acutely painful.

This little lump (probably a lipoma) may have always quietly been resting there in your thigh, and you’ve now only just noticed.
