Brief Answer:
Can be due to muscle spasms.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain in ankle and calf is not related to cervical problem. This can be due to a muscle spasm or overuse fatigue. Low levels of magnesium or vitamin D3 can also cause such symptoms which can be detected after simple blood tests.
This can be treated by (1) treating the underlying cause (2) keeping yourself well hydrated (3) stretching the muscles involved (4) the use of anti inflammatory medication such as ibuprofen, cataflam with meals provided there are no contraindications to their use.
Do consult an orthopedician for proper examination and related tests.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
