Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Swollen Heel, Calf Tightness And Pain While Walking?
My heel is swollen and sore into the bottom of the heel. I have looked for signs of a bite, but nothing is visible. This startespd last Friday, and has improved very little. The back of my calf is also tight when walking, and walking is painful. I have taken Aleve and it helps some so I can sleep.
As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief. Consult a general surgeon and get evaluated. An arterial Doppler is required to rule out conditions like peripheral vascular diseases.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Wishing you all the best.
