A member asked:
Very sore, tender calf muscles. i walked a bit more than usual 2 days ago but not that much. pain worse today despite rest yesterday -- any idea why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal for few days: Muscle soreness typically peaks a day or two after exercise, even if it is slightly more intense than what you are used to. If it is not improving at 4-5 days, then you would want to get evaluated to make sure there is not an underlying problem.
