In my opinion u need to do cryotherapy followed by stretching to get relieved from calf tightness... if it does improve after using this technique then u can go for dry needling to relieve from muscular spasm... in this a sterile needle is inserted into the tightened muscle to get a relaxed muscle.. get well soon take care
Next Steps
Find out a dry needling specialist in ur area
