maccaz 1461 Report post Posted April 19, 2018 squatted a pb with very tight wraps. calf swelled up over the next 48 hours. got to 10/10 pain felt like it was gonna pop. went to ER, they did an ultrasound to rule out DVT etc, nothing, but grade 2 medial gastroc tear (calf tear) no surgery needed. rest for 10 days. physio after 10 days. no squats 4-5 weeks. I'm going to run bpc-157 and tb500 to promote healing. anything else anyone recommends? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Somehow Wraps pull the tendons on the back of the leg pretty tight. Considering people tear calves running it's not that surprising. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
