What Causes Pain In Calf Area Post Stent Installation?

Hi I have an alterial ulser on my right ankle, caused by lack of circulation. Stints were installed to restore circulation back on oct 28th. I still have severe pain on my right calf when ever I try to stand or walk. It feels like a Charlie horse. Is this normal?
