Swollen calf sitting: 21 M I have mild swelling in my left calf after sitting at work all day. When I move around it goes away and when I wake up in the morning it is gone. ? ANS: your sitting is restricting blood flow out of your leg & you are likely eating too much salt or have venous disease on left. What is ur family Hx of varicose veins. If due to excess salt lower intake to <1,500 mg a day. if it goes away solved
