A member asked:
What can cause me to have pain on both calves upon dorsiflexion of my feet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A tight posterior: Muscle group can cause pain when dorsiflexing, as you are stretching the muscles that are tight. (if it is one side, i would be concerned for a clot, but this is less common if the presentation is bilateral.).
