A sharp calf pull at the end of a weekend game can seem minor, especially if walking is comfortable a few hours later. The problem often appears when you test it with a sprint three days afterward and feel the same grab.
That moment is a useful reason to book a sports physio caringbah assessment.
Pain alone does not show the full extent of an injury. A practitioner considers movement, strength, joint control, recent training changes and the demands of your sport before setting out what the leg can safely do next.
