Calf Cramp

[trikydik]

Good Afternoon,

I had a calf cramp for about 3 days. Started while on the treadmill and stayed the same no matter how much I stretched it.
Today walking down stairs, I felt a tearing pain in my calf, and the pain dropped to just above my Achilles tendon in the back of my foot.

The cramp pain was about a 4 (1-10) - the ankle pain is about a 1.5.

At first I thought muscle tear, but there is no associated pain in my calf anymore.

Anyone ever have something like this?

apparently it was my Achilles tendon....

I assume you went to a doctor then? If not, I would schedule an appointment asap.

Experience has taught me that cramps in general are caused by insufficient amounts of Magnesium and calcium.
Emergen -C packets help tremendously because of the electrolytes.
