Suggest Treatment For Indentation And Pain In Calf Muscle

My right calf muscle is indented and looks different from the left muscle. I have a sharp shooting pain down the side of my leg when I wake up in the morning and can hardly roll over to get out of bed. Once I stand I am ok and can walk without pain during the day. There is sometimes a slight tenderness behind my knee and in my right buttocks . I do not have lower back pain . No swelling or redness. I do not recall any injury to my leg
