Calf muscle pain

[scoobydo79]

Anyone else suffering with it? I get it in both legs but not at same time. Usually kicks in after a couple of loops. Leaves me limping round the delivery. Eating bananas and drinking water but little difference. Any thoughts please?

If you have an undiagnosed problem with your feet it could be that. I have some foot issues, I wont bore you, but because of that I wasnt walking correctly and my calfs were being overworked causing fatigue, my calfs were getting fatigued making my feet worse, a vicious circle

A couple of and some water will do diddly, get to your Drs , if its fatigue like mine was and you dont address it it could become chronic, which will make your pain seem like just a bit sore by comparison, and could well affect how you walk and hold your whole body causing issues in your back shoulders. Chronic pain can also affect your sleep and ultimately your mental wellbeing. I might seem a bit OT but trust me,nip it in the bud, bud incidentally I dont know how you get on with RM shoes if you wear them? But my podiatrist raised his eyebrows when he saw what was issued to walk 10 miles a day in

Get a foam roller (doesn't have to be a "grid" roller) and see if you have any tender points...

No did not find out the cause, tried getting a Dr appointment, but no luck, think it's all down to the amount of time we are on our feet, which seems to be getting longer.

Had the same problem in both legs turned out to be achillies problem's now been off work for four months still no improvement.

Although it could be an underlying issue that needs medical advice it could be something like a particularly steep driveway on your second loop or something? Or even a few steps that are again a bit steep.

Otherwise a few exercises before your shift can help.
