Hi,
Thanks for your reply, very much appreciated.
I have some pain on walking which feels "deep" and right in the centre of my calf (a sharpish pain). It definately gets worse when I walk up an incline (even moderate). Walking downhill is easier.
Standing up straight and doing calf raises causes little discomfort. The calf feels a bit weak on my bad leg, but suppose thats to be expected!
There seems to be no discernable difference in calf size between good and bad.
Suprisingly (perhaps!) bent leg calf raises arn't as painful as I expected. I have some discomfort, but am able to perform them, although the calf feels weak again. I dont get the same sharpish pain I do when walking or going up an incline.
When walking, the pain occurs just as I push off with my toes, and occasionally when I swing my leg out infront of me when walking in the centre of my calf (if that helps!?).
I also get pain as I bend down to, for example, sit down or stand up from kneeling at about the mid point of the movement.
I hope this helps. I've tried to describe it the best I can for you! If you need any more info, please let me know. Your help is greatly appreciated!
Many thanks,
Guy
