Yes. After exertion, your muscles tend to tighten up. A good cool-down stretch helps prevent sore muscles and helps them recover more quickly. Also, as with most pulls and strains, until they heal completely, it's very easy to reinjure them. You may want to take some time off (if possible) and let your body heal.
