You are having calf stiffness of that leg which becomes more stiffer on sitting improperly and for longer duration. Thus you experience pain after rest. More the rest more time to get normal as the muscle gets stretched out on walking and remains stretched till you are on your feet.
Next Steps
need to evaluate your sitting habits and calf tightness. we can do a teleconsultation if you want
