My right calf felt numb one night, then achey the next. last night it felt fine and now it is numb again, it feels like it is constantly asleep?

Calf issues: Tough to say exactly what it could be, but as described, it sounds as if you have a nerve irritation issue or some vascular issue (or combination of both),..so make sure if this continues, you need to see the Doctor to get assessed and properly treated depending on the diagnosis. Good luck.
