What could cause a shooting pain in my right calf?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Shooting calf pain: It could be as simple and benign as a muscle cramp or spasm but more serious conditions could be a blood clot or even a pinched nerve in the spine secondary to a herniated or bulging disc. More information needed.
