maccaz Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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