I get a severe aching in my right calf when i stand fairly motionless... when i sit down or lie down it goes away.

Calf ache: If you have not strained or bruised the calf, then one would be concerned about phlebitis or blood clot in the calf vein. Another possibility is a Baker's cyst. If symptoms persist get examined by a physician who will order appropriate tests.
