Calf Problems

[chimp]

Hi I am new to this forum so hello to everyone,

I am a keen footballer (soccer), probably coming to the end of my career (35)however i am still able to offer a lot and want to keep playing.

I have had some trouble with my left calf over the years, with treatment for DVT on two occassions,

However now i have got some acute pains in my calf, not the same pains i had before, i have attahed a picture of a calf (not mine) to indicate the areas i get the pains, the pain varies in poisition but feels like a hot knife is cutting down the back of my calf...

I tried resting it for three weeks then it felt ok ish, so tried to have kick around again and it went immediatly..

Any idea :

A) what the problem is?
B) best treatment for it?

cheers

Andy
