What can cause a tight feeling in my left leg calf? had it for 2 days now
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain: There are several possible reasons. If you had a long trip like a long plane ride or in bed for a long period of time then a clot can be possible , this goes with swelling of the leg. This would be very serious and needs a emergency room visit if can be a pinched nerve in the back or a muscle strain
