Gah! Pulled calf!

[Britt]

I don't know what I did, but for the last week and a half my right calf feels like a rock. I can barely move it. On top of that, now my right foot has a constant cramp that feels like a tight band right across the arch, I guess from trying to walk around on the ball of my foot. Anyone have any experience with pulled calf muscles?

I pulled a muscle in my arm and it hurt worse than when I broke my arm. You will probably need some muscle relaxers; go see a doc.

Thanks, I think I might do that. I had some muscle relaxers left over from a previous injury, I took half of one last night and woke up feeling better. When I woke up yesterday morning I couldn't even straighten my leg. It was like I'd been bitten by a snake and my whole lower leg was paralyzed or something.

Sorry to hear about your knot, Garland.

Looking at the internet, apparently my foot problem is plantar fasciitis, caused by my overly tight calf. Man, this sucks.
