[V] I have been getting like a cramp/tight muscle inside my calf on my left leg.

It feels like there is an elastic band tied arround it. I also get a sharp pain keep shooting through it.

I have now totally convinced myself that I have deep vein thrombosis. Even looked it up. Gosh how sad am I. [V]

Had it for two days now and its making my anxiety escalate.

:(:(

Mandie,
It's probaby just a tight muscle, nothing to worry about. have you done anything to strain it? Unless it's hugely swollen and red I wouldn't worry. Maybe try doing some stretches to ease it or nice bath. If it doesn't go you could see your doc but it sounds just like a strained or tight muscle to me. Take care.

Have you done some stretches ?

Hold your foot by the toes and really pull it towards you, point your toes away as much as possible. Several times an hour

Walk around on tippy toes and on your heels each 15 mins .

If its localized hot, swollen and red see someone about it .
