A member asked:
What could be the cause of tight calf muscles vitamin deficiency?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: If both are equally affected, think globally such as nutrition (paricularly electrolytes), lack of stretching and movement, general circulation issues. Try to get more electrolytes such as magnesium, potassium, calcium, do calf stretches and move your body. If it persists or affects only one side, get checked out.
