OW!! My left calf hurts. I developed a varicose vein a few years in my left leg. This big ugly ropey looking thing. Sometimes it hurts, sometimes it doesn't. Does anyone else on here deal with this issue and have some advice to share?

And the pointer of staying off my feet for a few days doesn't apply. I work in hospitality and walk an average of 4 to 9 miles everyday of work, 5 to 7 days a week...

Compression socks help the back of my right knee/calf. These dang things are genetic in my family, I can definitely see myself going to get them treated one day. They're so aggravating and embarrassing especially if you are in good shape

I understand what you go through. I developed varicose vein after my pregnancy. When I walk for a few miles, my calf hurts. I have run all my life and now I'm worried that if I start running again, it would just make the condition worse. I dont think there are any home remedies which we could try to get rid of them. Seeking medical help would be the only option I guess.

I started my journey this month to lose weight with a goal of 100 pounds and completing three sprint triathlons. My beginning weight was 321 and it is now down to 307.

Deep calf pain can be a tricky problem to deal with, and it’s appropriate that you are paying attention to this pain before it becomes a more debilitating injury.

Calf pain can have multiple causes. In your case, the most likely cause seems to be from a calf muscle strain. If you have had Achilles problems you can be predisposed to a calf injury.

I'm experiencing tightness and pain in my calf muscles including my left achilles tendon. The tendons seem to really stiffen when sitting or sleeping. I'm not doing anything new.

Would getting the veins fixed have any potential triathlon performance implications? Is there anything else I should be doing for them when I swim/bike/run?

I have a pain deep in my calf about five inches below the knee. A sports doctor did not feel anything wrong in the muscle, and there was no bruising. The tender spot can still be felt on massage.
