    that sucks. you should put heat on it, and see if you can get somebody to rub it. that will get blood flowing to it allowing it to heal faster. try to stretch when it's not to painful, but don't overdo it. how long it takes to heal really depends on how badly you hurt it. I'd say if it doesn't feel better in the next few days, you should go see a doctor

    just pull it behind your head that helps a little. if you can touch your knee caps with your pinkys its even better
