So at some point earlier tonight the calf muscle above the hurt ankle decided to completely lock up on me. It hurts horribly. I guess the way I hold my leg is doing it. I tried icy-hot with little result. I can't stretch it out properly because I can't put weight on my leg. ARGH! I even got drunk on the last of my midori in order to ignore or dull the pain. It helped while I was drunk, but now it hurts again. Bah.

Actually, for me, any time my foot gets injured, within a few days my calf muscles start cramping. It's either due to the fact that you are walking/moving differently than normal, or the pain causes the entire area to tighten up slightly. This tightening over 2-3 days is the source of the muscle cramps. Don't think there is much you can do about it until the pain goes away or your ankle heals.
