What Causes A Knot In The Calf Muscles And Posterior Knee Pain?
While walking home from playing pickle ball, I experienced a pain derectly behind my knee. The next day s it was like I knot in my calf muscle. I took aleeve and applied icy/hot to the area. Yesterday, six days later it felt better. Today while walking the pain returned, but this time lower and to the outside of my lower leg. I have tried stretching before walking. But it still hurts. What gives? Thank you

Hello,
As you explain the history you should do an ultrasound of the affected area to be sure if there is something that needs more care.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
