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.
I have a strange pulling feeling on the outside of my left calf, it feels like the beginning of a cramp (no pain just strange sensation) I also have had some pain behind my knee. I have had an ultrasound on my leg and they said it showed no sign of dvt. I have been experiencing this for a month now.
Your symptoms could be related to a stretched muscle or a pinched nerve. For this reason, I would recommend performing nerve conduction studies in order to exclude a possible pinched nerve. If everything is OK, consulting with an orthopedist may be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
