Calf muscle strains/tears are common after sudden sprints, sudden stops, or prolonged standing. They present with localized swelling and pain, weakness when walking, and can even affect daily activities.
SynergyTCM will first assess the injury and "red flag" symptoms, then use acupuncture to promote circulation, activate blood and dispel stasis, and provide external care to reduce swelling and pain, helping to restore mobility. Severe tears or suspected fractures require imaging studies and should not be delayed by self-medicating with medicated oils.
Appointments are available in Wan Chai and Jordan. For sports injuries, please also refer to our pages on TCM Treatment for Sports Injuries and Traumatology and Bone Setting.
