Suggest medications for swollen calf
Patient: My left calf is swollen 2 days ago it felt like I had pulled a muscle in the back of my leg. That pain has gone away nowon the inside of the calf there is a spot about the size of a silver dollar that is quite tender painfull. I do have buldging veins. This happened a coulple of months ago went to emergency room they did a sonogram on my legs from crotch to ankle and did not see any clots or other problems. About a week later swelling was gone as was all soreness and ternderness. Any ideas Doctor: Hello,  Your symptoms could be related to a sprained muscle or ligament. For this reason, I would recommend using cold local packs and trying local massage with anti-inflammatory ointments. If the pain persists, consulting with an orthopedist would be necessary.   Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care  Regards, Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
