Hello,

As the history directs towards the nerve entrapment in its course. Do core stability exercise, spinal muscle strengthening exercises, hip and lower limbs strengthening exercises as a whole.

This should get some good results. Use hot water fermentation for the calf muscle to reduce the vasoconstriction and keep the leg elevated over the pillow.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
