25th April this year I had a THR
It being a revision, been great, but calf pain started yesterday, no pain when still, just when I'm walking, actually feels like a strained muscle, anyone any idea what this could be?
Hi Anne,
It could be the fascia didn’t heal or the muscle. I’ve been fighting the same thing. I just had surgery to repair it and it didn’t help.
Get all the facts before you have any surgery to repair it.
But yes I’ve had the very same problem. Will see my dr in a couple of days to get stitches out and find out why surgery didn’t work.
I’m so sorry you’re having problems!!
Hi glad that your doing ok other than the calf pain issue, it could be an overstrained muscle of course but are you wearing support socks? best to get someone to maybe have a look at it, is it tender, swollen, hard or hot
Whenever I hear “calf pain,” I worry about possible DVT. If the pain is localized and accompanied by swelling, I’d be very concerned. I was advised to call my doctor immediately if I had any symptoms at all. He said that he’d rather tell me it’s nothing to worry about rather than ignoring a potential problem. When in doubt, make the call.
