Hello,
A burning pain from ankle to calf can be due to excessive muscle stretching without adequate warming up or decreased fluid intake or collection of lactic acid in the muscle. Increasing intake of electrolyte-rich energy drink will help.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
