On saturday I crushed legs, on monday I was starting a new routine which began with leg day, even though I had super horrible DOMs I said fuck it, I'll go anyway I'll just warm up super well etc.
After squatting I'm doing my stiff leg deadlifts and at the bottom boom, I heard a loud pop through my headphones, pretty much felt the muscle right beneath my ass cheek tear and lost the strength in that leg right away and dropped the weight.
I can still walk quite well, I only really get pain when I extend my leg too far in front of me or bend too far forward.

Went in today to hit upper, everything is looking good, no real pain or discomfort in my hamstrings so I can still lift however legs is out of the question (for the most part).
What I'm looking for is advice with altering my routine in order to still hit quads and some hamstring rehab work such as leg curls etc, as well as general recovery of the hamstring. Any input would be appreciated!

Any bruising in the area? If you heard a loud pop don't do any rehab on your own, go see a doctor.

nope no bruising or swelling really, from what I read there isn't a whole lot they can do unless it took bone with the muscle in which case Id need surgery, I'm assuming that's not the case because it's not bad at all I just want to avoid scar tissue

Your mistake is in self diagnosis without any medical imaging tests. You could be right but you could be wrong as well, why not let someone whos trained in identifying these injuries direct you?
