Ice is better than heat for an acute injury during the first week. Most people stop icing after the first day or two unless they're very uncomfortable. No longer than 15 minutes at a time with a hamstring. If it were a toe or a finger, no more than 10 minutes as cases of frostbite have occurred. Always a good idea to place the ice in a plastic bag and place layers of paper or cloth towels between the bag and the skin. Remember RICE - rest, ice, compression, elevation. Generally 15 -20 min is maximum for icing an injury.
Here are some stretches to improve your toe touch: 1.) Start with your Hamstring stretches - Your hamstring muscles are the biggest problem when it comes to flexibility, so it's good to isolate them right away. Start by standing with your feet together and bend down to touch your toes (keep your legs straight). NOw go to a wall, place both hands on it and stick one leg bend forward and one leg straight back in a lunge position.
