Greetings, sorry for your mother's pain. Just massage (10 strokes) calf muscles and give ice to calf muscles for 5 min twice daily until you feel pain subsides to 40%. Alongside home remedies mentioned above see physio near you and get treated. Do not go after pain which is a symptom, find the cause of pain and it is most likely muscles which troubles. So be cool.. If any concerns do let me know. Wishing your mother a quick recovery.
