Suggest Treatment For Sore And Stiff Right Calve Muscle

Hi I woke up this morning with a sore and stiff right calve muscle, it is hard to walk and sometimes sore to the touch say when massaging it but worse when I walk. It is not red or swollen nor warmer then usual to the touch, should I be thinking blood clot or sore muscle?
