Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain in the back of the leg that you have can be a muscular pain related to exertion. Decreased fluid intake or electrolyte imbalance can also cause this. A Deep vein thrombosis or DVT is usually associated with pain at rest and swelling of the calf also.
However, It'll be better to get it examined and get a color Doppler scan done to rule out DVT.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
