Not likely: the most common reason why someone would have aching in the calves is musculoskeletal. Try doing calf stretching and hamstring stretching. See an Osteopath or try looking at your activity level. With the work up you have had, I would not be fixated on a blood clot without some other compelling reason.

Injured calf playing pickleball, went to ER and had blood clot/DVT ruled out. Referred to ortho for muscle strain/tear. Ankle and heel is now swollen and sore. Is this related to calf injury or walking differently?

Lately Ive been having calf pain. Feels like a sore pain that I sometimes feel when I walk and its a bit tender . No other symptoms. Im 18 years old and scared it might be DVT. Thoughts ? I got an ultrasound, is it possible it missed deep clots?
