How do you heal a strained quad that occurred from running.?

I just happened to have the same problem during a basketball game. I just went to a doctor today and he said that just make sure u stretch it at least 6 times a day for 2 min each time for about 6 weeks. Make sure that you stretch your hamstring too, this would prevent any future injury in your quad or hamstring. Then you should ice it during the first 3 weeks, then heat it for the last 3 weeks. Make sure you don't put any strain on this muscle for about 2-3 weeks or else it will just make it worse. Hope this helps! =D
