A young lady in her 20s came this morning complaining of right calf residual pain after having a cramp while waking up this morning. Her mother gave her a hot traditional oil which she massaged on her calf but the pain persisted. She walked into my room with a limp and supported her weight on her forefoot.

Isometric exercises and hydrotherapy could be instituted to start her rehabilitation process along with electrotherapy. The duration of the rehabilitation will depend on the severity of the strain and her response to treatment (evaluate weekly).
