I have had right calf swelling an pain for thirty days now. It hasn t got better or worse. I woke up with a burning feeling in the middle of right calf I did not have charile horse just woke up to it. The pain moves around every couple days in my lower leg right now it is behind my right knee and I cant bend it all the way without a lot of pain its been that way for a week . I am 50 years old and do a lot of Manuel labor and weight lifting for a hobby but did not hurt it doing either one. But I have had sore butt muscles and hips for about four months before this. And I have no history of blood clots. And no redness in leg. It just aches after work mainly but pain behind knee is only when I try to bend it all the way.I have no back pain but my hamstring feels like something needs to pop. What could this be.
You have two possibilities 1 is a DVT which u can test by putting calf in stretched position for 1 min then release, if u get sudden strong pain you need. Doplar as soon a posdible2 is that your having disc or lumber spondylosis problem in which case you need to do a lumber MRI u can test this by standing on your heels with foot in dorsiflexion (toes up) while leaning forward with trunk if pain goes away then it is probably your back Hope my answer helps you Good Luck
