Why does my dads hamstring hurt whenever he stands up?

If he sits down for a few minutes and then stands up his right hamstring hurts him.

He is 45 yrs. old and he is bulky. No not fat, bulky as in muscular.

He is a bit big around the stomach though and not the healthiest of eaters even though he lifts all the time.

He has tight hamstrings, probably from lifting all the time.

Gentle stretching helps me.
If it still hurts see a doctor.
