Brief Answer:
Could be partial rupture in calf muscle

Detailed Answer:
Hi
I am Dr Gopal Goel , Orthopedic Surgeon.

In my opinion the pop in your calf muscle followed by swelling could be a partial rupture of in calf muscle. Apply Ice, take pain killers and visit your orthopedic surgeon. I would suggest MRI if swelling and pain persist.

Thanks for the question. Please feel free to ask any other question.
