KNEE BURSITIS EXERCISES You can stretch your leg right away by doing the first 3 exercises. You may start doing the other exercises when your leg is less painful. Hamstring stretch on wall: Lie on your back with your buttocks close to a doorway. Stretch your uninjured leg straight out in front of you on the floor through the doorway. Raise your injured leg and rest it against the wall next to the door frame. Keep your leg as straight as possible. You should feel a stretch... in the back of your thigh. Hold this position for 15 to 30 seconds. Repeat 3 times. Standing calf stretch: Stand facing a wall with your hands on the wall at about eye level.
