Not typically: Without calf swelling DVT not likely although without more information hard to say. Calf pain may just be a cramp or musculoskeletal strain/injury etc. If it persists despite analgesics/anti-inflammatories see your primary care physician.

Pain: sounds more like a muscle cramp if it doesn't improve suggest evaluation, a venous doppler sonogram would determine if dvt
