A member asked:
Calf pain, doc did physical, ruled out dvt and nerve issues. says its not serious.pain comes and goes, moreso when walking, not severe pain just achy. still worried that it is dvt. what else could it be.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly muscles: doesn't look like dvt, and your doctor ruled it out, muscle sprains / strains can be the reason, especially that is related to motion. ACE bandage and topical analgesics may help, if no improvement, revisit your doctor, good luck
