I am a 67 years old and have diabetes fasting is around 74 and pp is around 200. 15 days ago while walking I felt tightness and pain in my right calf. The doctor checked my leg and prescribed rsto dsr acrea t both 2 tabs per day both for 3 days and evion capsules and nervicin capsule both 1 time per day for 10 days. I now have heaviness and pain on the sole of my feet with restricted movement of the fingers. I also experience pain in the calf when I walk for 5 to 6 minutes. Please help to get me to return to do all my pending work. Thank you.

Resisted terminal knee extension: make a loop with a piece of elastic tubing by tying a knot in both ends. Close the knot in a door at knee height. Step into the loop with your injured leg so the tubing is around the back of your knee. Lift the other foot off the ground and hold onto a chair for balance, if needed. Bend the knee with tubing about 45 degrees. Slowly straighten your leg, keeping your thigh muscle tight as you do this. Repeat 15 times. Do 2 sets of 15. If you need an easier way to do this, stand on both legs for better support while you do the exercise. Standing calf stretch: stand facing a wall with your hands on the wall at about eye level. Keep as arthritis is very common that you get generally bilaterally. Ice therapy would definitely help to reduce the inflammation. We also advise you to use knee cap which would help to prevent the knee from damaging further and also to maintain the quadriceps muscle tone.
