Good morning - hoping for a little advice.

I believe that I utilize my calf muscles incorrectly. Is this even possible?

When I run, jump rope, docalf raises - anything utilizing my calf muscle,Iget a pain and soreness lower in my leg - not in my muscle. I get sore inthe region below the calf down to the ankle. This area sometimes swells, and even gets larger when I workout hard. Due to a thickening of the lower portion of my lower leg, I have a terrible tapering shape from my calf to my ankle with a ratio of about 1.5 to 1.

Is there anyway to retrain the muscles in my calf to be more fully utilized?

Thank for the help - and let me know if I can provide anymore information on the issue.
