Calf pain can be due to many reasons including pain coming from spine or due to some deficiency of minerals like Magnesium. It would be better to consult with a pain management specialist for correct diagnosis and management
Next Steps
Avoid standing and sitting at a place for more than 30 minutes.

Need more information on the type and location of pain.
Is it on the back side of knee to ankle or towards the inner side of the leg? Does it increase on walking for sometime and so severe on walking for sometime that he needs to take rest? Or constant throughout? Does the pain shoot from buttock till ankle OT just from knee to ankle?
Does the patient smoke?
Next Steps
Online consultation will help in deciding the investigations to be done
