Leg ache and tightness
It was July 2021 when I started experiencing leg pain that too below knee (in the calves). If I used to sit in the thunderbolt position then when stretched, calves used to pain a lot. I started massaging daily so it vanished.
I also started exercising thrice a week.
Now in August 2021, I climbed 10 floors using stairs and after a day or so, I had severe knee and calves pain. I was not able to stand at one go after sitting for long. It used to pain in the knee and calves in the first few steps of the walk. Also, after waking up in the morning, I could not stretch my leg and walk, it used to pain but the pain subsided after the day began. It went like this for a week or so.
Now, again in September 2021, I am facing the same pain. Cant stand/walk properly after my legs are at rest (sleeping, sitting) for a long time. First few steps of the walk are difficult. Also, the muscles of the knee, calves tightens and feels very heavy. Massages are not working. Please suggest course of action.
