Rest is recommended for calf soft tissue injuries.
Most calf soft tissue injuries are caused by muscle strains due to strenuous exercise.
When a calf soft tissue injury occurs, you should immediately brake and rest and avoid getting out of bed. You can apply ice packs within 72 hours, hot packs after 72 hours, and use plaster immobilization if necessary. Elevate the affected limb when lying in bed.
When the calf soft tissue injury is more serious, such as accompanied by muscle, tendon rupture, must be immobilized with a cast and bed rest, when pain occurs, but also the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as acetaminophen, ibuprofen, etc., to relieve, but also with physical therapy to accelerate the recovery of muscle injury.
However, when the soft tissue injury is so serious that bed rest for a period of time can not be relieved, it is necessary to consult a doctor in a timely manner, improve the relevant examinations to determine the severity of the condition and then carry out targeted treatment. The above drugs should be used under the guidance of professional physicians and pharmacists in a standardized and rational use.
