The appearance of calf soreness symptoms has little to do with weight change and does not indicate a thinning of the physique. Soreness symptoms can be classified as physiological or pathological, but are generally not directly related to weight loss.
Patients may have sore calves due to prolonged standing or after strenuous exercise. If the patient has soreness with no obvious cause and it persists without relief, he or she needs to seek medical attention to identify the cause to avoid delaying the condition leading to serious consequences.
