Tight calf and a bit sore?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stretch: Question a bit vague, but assuming no acute injury, recent surgey, or long trip, these are common symptoms of someone who needs to get stretching on a regular basis. If a recent injury occurred, seek evaluation for a tendon or muscle belly injury. If recent surgery or a long trip, you should have some concern about a dvt. If this history is positive, seek medical evaluation soon.
