Had the date with the orthopedic doctor. It is a hamstring tear, and probably in two different places, but no surgery is required. The hamstring is made up of four separate muscles, and while the injured muscle may never regain the form of its former self, there is plenty of other muscle for the leg to function normally for me. Imaging and corrective surgery would have been a possibility had I been a young professional athlete. Since we’re not going that corrective route, this probably ends my prospects for a pro career . Letting it heal on its own over the next month or so should be just fine.
We’ll keep rolling along.
