Calf atrophy: Sounds like you have bl calf atrophy. The DX depends on how long you have this condition, and whether it is progressing(getting worse). There is a familial dz known as charcot marie tooth where the calf muscles get smaller and smaller (stork legs or reverse champagne bottle calves). Other muscle dystrophies may cause calf atrophy as well. You need to see a medical professional for a complete exam.
