Brief Answer: low calcium level is one cause Detailed Answer: Hello, I have read your query. The most common cause of calf pain that you are experiencing is low calcium levels. It is also seen with low potassium levels. In the setting of chronic disease like Deep vein thrombosis, this kind of pain is present too. I suggest you to check your serum calcium levels including serum potassium and sodium level. At your age, I usually recommend patients to take oral calcium supplements on a daily basis in view of age related osteoarthritis. Let me know other specific symptoms or pre-existing conditions that are associated with this pain. Get well soon.
