a lot of teens get it. its called ceaver's disease other whys known as growing pains. it hurts for a long period of time then after a while the pain slowly decreases. just wrap it and rotate from hot to cold on it. take advil everyday. though it wont cure you... it will help with the pain

Try stretching in am and pm to strengthen. Use webMD to look at stretches you can do. If no improvement, see a doc.

You probably did a lot of running or some physical activity yesterday and you didn't stretch out your muscles properly. Stretching after a work out can help your muscles recover better, maintain and establish better range of motion, and prevent future injuries to your muscles and tendons.

did you run yesterday or take a bad step?

Check out your trainers, if they have high backs they could be doing the damage, especially if you walk or , even more disabling (with high backed trainers) run a lot. All recent research recommends, "calf raises" with quite heavy weights for this really annoying malady. Had it myself ,spent a fortune on physiotherapists until I diagnosed the problem myself , "high backed trainers" constantly colliding with my achilles tendon during walking or training.
