Whilst taking a walk, i sometimes feel a pain in my lower calf. this happens erratically whilst walking without any accident or trigger. this normally happens about 10 minutes into my walk. this has now happened on both calves on separate occasions. ?

Calf pain walking: Does it resolve with just standing still? May be claudication - atherosclerosis of the leg vessels with narrowing of the arteries. Would follow up with vascular surgeon for testing that can diagnosis of the condition and treatment which may include medication or catheterization/ stenting.
