Sounds like me the other day. My calve muscles were so tight and swollen. Better now after a few days of constantly stretching.

If you are on BP meds check to see if that is a side affect. I was taking procardia for over a year and stayed swollen the whole time. It went away as soon as I stopped taking it.

I would eat some anti-inflammatory foods such as ginger, garlic, etc. look it up on the internet in regarding anti-inflammatory foods or supplements.

I fell down a while back and was having problems with swelling in my legs.  It sound funny but I swabbed Witch Hazel on the knee and the swollen areas and felt almost instant relief.  This may help you fr the short term, but like everyone else says, GO SEE YOUR DOCTOR.  Hope you are feeling well soon.  Taking care of the little ones can really give you a run for your money.

Try wearing some support hosiery - especially if you are on your feet most of the day and when you finally get to rest be sure to put your legs up!  Feel better!!

I started taking a natural whole food supplement that has done absolute wonders for my health and it is a great anti-inflammatory and pain reliever.  I don't think they want me mentioning stuff like that on here, so if you are interested in hearing more about it then send me an email.   brandonltanner84@gmail.com
