What To Do For The Muscle Knot In The Calf?

I have a muscle knot in my calf. The pain started in my buttock, but really doesn t hurt much there anymore just my calf. Feels better when sitting or laying down. Bother me when standing. I twisted something in my back while golfing a couple weeks ago. Not sure if this what triggered it. The calf isn t red, hot or swollen. Just hurts in a small area, not the entire calf.
