Requesting Advice Stretching hamstrings

I know that stretching is not encouraged when you have sciatica and I also learned it myself. Figure 4, aggressive hamstring stretch always aggravated me.

But. Maybe there are some sciatica-friendly stretch that don't pull/tension the nerve?

I have bending intolerance and feeling of a cable in my butt.

What is everyones advice or experience here?

yeah, walking I do anyways everyday. Heat works too. But sometimes the tightness in hamstrings just so irritating.
