Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I m having intermittent sharp pains in my lower calf muscle. The pain is isolated and intense when it comes on, but lasts for only 2-3 seconds everytime, happening every few minutes. It happens whether i m sitting or standing and only hurts during those few seconds. Otherwise it feels fine to stand on, stretch, etc.. Should i be worried? It started this morning.
Hi Dear Patient you need not worry but should get yourself investigated with an MRI or Dopplerand if required an NCV of the limb.We suspect this to be due to vascular cause. Take care and investigate and take treatment accordingly. Thanks
