7 wks post calf muscle tear.yet, i still have same hard knot that appeared on day one. 3x7cm. looks & feels as if i have muscle flexed 100% of time?

Mis-diagnosis: Your muscle tear is really a fascia tear, and as a result you have a knot in the muscle that is causing pain. The best response will come from treating the trigger point with needling and myofascial release and restoring the fascia injury with platelet rich plasma. www.blatmanhealthandwellness.com
