Calf muscle pain can be caused by various factors, including muscle cramps, muscle strain, arterial claudication, neurogenic claudication, and Achilles tendinitis. Treatment for calf pain will depend on the underlying cause, and it can be treated with the PRICE method or physical therapy, depending on the cause. Physical therapy includes pain management, stretching, and soft tissue mobilization. To prevent muscle strain injuries, warming up by walking at a moderate pace before engaging in more intense exercise is recommended. A person should seek emergency medical treatment if they suspect they have deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Other signs that a person should seek emergency treatment for calf pain include fever, swollen leg that is pale or cool to the touch, and sudden extreme swelling in the legs.
