Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
When I got out of my car this morning I heard a loud pop and suddenly couldnt walk on my left leg...felt like a severe charlie horse..almost like I popped or tore a muscle...the pain is in my calf and after 6 hours I am still in severe pain...tried stretching and walking it off but at times my leg gives out....never had this happen before...what could it be?
It would have helped me better if u had told me your age, co morbidities and also your gender.
From the looks of it i think u r suffering from a muscle pain which will remain for a few days. Give that leg rest, apply warmth with a warm towel or water bag. Take Tab aceclofenac 80 mg twice daily after food
