Hi you have a cold and painful calf during cold weather . This is relieved by Local heat .There are two questions i would like to ask 1. what is your age and 2. do you smoke?.
In my opinion this problem is caused by deficiency in arterial circulation in the leg in certain diseases. The treatment is avoidance of cold, local heat and NO smoking. Certain medicines like calcium dobesylate may help you.
