What Causes Recurrent Calf Muscle Bruises?
I just discovered a bruise on my right calf muscle. However I am getting over a bruise on my right leg. I have a history of torn calf muscles, chin splints along with swelling in the ankle/Achilles tendon all on the left leg. I have been to the ortho and podiatrist several times but to no avail still experiencing same symptoms (swelling and pain in the left calf, ankle and Achilles tendon. Do you have any suggestions of what is going on?
