Our friend was pushing a hospital bed up an incline and hurt her left calf . She got better over the next 10 days. Today she was standing literally on her incline drive way and weight shifted to her lower right foot . She felt a water balloon pop feeling in her left calf. She is having 4/10 pain. Spasms and difficulty standing on her left foot. What should she do besides icing?
