My mom is 65 years old and a little overweight. She says that her right calf muscle hurt – she feels warmth and heat when she stands. She has been experiencing this problem since Saturday (February 17, 2013). Should she be concerned and seek medical attention immediately or see a Doctor in the morning.

Chosen Answer:
A common cause of calf pain is poor circulation.
However it can be caused by overuse, or even hardening of
the arteries.
Your mom is at the age where it might not be a bad
idea to have a doctor check it, just to be safe.
