A member asked:
Why does my right calf hurt only when i take a step? what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a physician: The calf pain could be from a simple muscle strain, but the worst case scenario is if you have some sort of blood clot. I don't want to alarm you, but a simple visit to the doctor would be able to tell you what is going on.
