A member asked:
My mother complains of severe pain in her ankle along with calf muscle tenderness past 5 hours what may be the reason?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Have her seen: I would definitely have her seen. There are a number of possibilities, assuming that she did not injure it, which presumably you would have mentioned. These can include gout, sciatica, infection, even a blood clot. A simple exam would go a long way to determine the cause.
