Leg Burn

I pulled my right hamstring in early July, Ortho said grade 2, no black and blue but still painful couldn’t walk for a while. He said eight weeks, i road some on the trainer resting my right leg and peddling with my left. Road flats and trainer to ease back into it when they said was appropriate

Started riding road again and after few days my legs started burning every little hill etc. Probably anything over 230 watts burning tops of both thighs. This has been going on for several weeks wondering if it’s ever going to get better. Not sure if I’m using different muscles now or what and not sure if I should ride less or ride more. I’ve had my legs burn for a few seconds if I road hard and rested for ten minutes right when start back up but it would go away pretty quick, this doesn’t go away. I’ve ridden a few centuries, done some intervals, and I’ve rested no approach seems to help so far
