[|Human|] I stepped up on a ladder, heard a loud snap in my upper right calf and it began hurting and swelling immediatey - this was two days ago. I didn t do anything to treat it at first because I was out of town for a Wedding and couldn t rest. Once I got home the next afternoon, I elevated it and put ice on it. Today, the swelling is worse and now my ankle and foot are also swollen. I m 43 and fairly healthy (stay physically active at my job).
[|AI|]  Hello, I have studied your case and I think that you may have a muscular injury. It is common during sudden twisting. I would suggest you visit an orthopedic doctor and get it checked. Most probably it is a grade 2 muscle strain. He will suggest you painkiller tablets with local ointment. Continue ice application. Avoid standing for a long time and doing any heavy exercise. Walking is allowed. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
