What Causes Injury To The Calf Muscle Above The Ankle Bone?
I injured my calf 3 inches above my ankle bone. This is on the inside of the leg. I was running on the tread mill and as I was running I felt the area tighten. I continued to run and then felt a pop 30 seconds later. I was not running hard just a moderate pace. What do you think I injured.

hi,
I think you may be pushing hard on a treadmill. as one should see the Newton's third law of motion, which states every action has equal and opposite reaction. So when you impact on the treadmill the hard surface gives the same intensified force back. may be you must have hurt the calf muscle. Try taking hot water fermentation and do slow ankle toe moments and little straight leg raise as well. by 3-4 days you should be fine.
