I pulled a hamstring last year and recently "tweaked" it while swimming. I do the usually stretching beforehand and am wondering if what I wear might help. Right now I wear a jammer and am wondering if wearing leg tights might make a difference (more support to the leg as well as keeping the leg warmer).
Does anyone have any advice to offer? Am I completely wrong in thinking what I wear my help my condition?
Many thanks,

In addition to the ecxellent advice to stretch and strengthen. The jammers or legskins will add some compression to your legs which should help support the areas.
