Sounds like you've stretched the hamstrings and gastrocnemius muscles in your leg. You need to rest your leg for at least a day or two. Heat and massage are also helpful. Get some potassium in your diet by eating potatoes and bananas. Don't worry. You will heal, but it may take a few days. Good luck! Next time do some warm-ups before you stretch.

Take a hot bath/shower and try to relax your muscles. Apply Aspercreme. It's like BenGay but odorless.

Muscle strains are very painful and most of the time they take time to get better.

first, you take off all of the scales. then, you broil it. nextly, you marinade it in a combination of mustard, ketchup, mayonaise, and Heinz57. Then you put barbecue sauce on it and it should be feeling better in just a few days!
