Hi,

My hubby is suffering from a severe pain in his lower calf, has had it for a while now, does anyone have an experience of a specialist here who knows about such injuries, thinking he made need an MRI. Thanks

ozankoys is right, either take your husband to a medical centre or straight to hospital. my husband got DVT just by putting his legs up on a coffee table. all being well, as you said, it may be muscle or tendon problems, but not worth taking a risk. i wish him well

Ask them to also check his lower limb(s) circulation.
