What Is The Treatment For Injured Calf Muscle?

I had a wreck July 2013. I injured my right calf muscle. Instantly could not walk on it. Six months later I can still see bruising and have pain. I believe my leg was pinned between the dashboard and seat. Would a deep muscle tear be the most likely reason I am still not completely healed.

Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Its likely that you had deep damage of muscles and may be of bone as well , i suggest you to visit orthopedician and have complete thorough workup including physical examination and lab tests like X-rays and MRI to rule out any deep injury that can cause problems in later periods of your life.

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate to ask. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
