Answers:
There are a couple possibilities of what it could be!. It could be a pinched nerve in the back of the knee or what is known as a Baker's Cyst!. Baker's Cysts can be very painful and can cause infection if not taken care of!. If your doctor doesn't find either of these things, then chances are you will find an answer by going to a chiropractor who specializes in sports injuries, as it could be a subluxated (misaligned) fibula (the bone in the back of the lower leg)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sounds like you are over training mate!. Or driving a lot!. In any case make sure you stretch all the time the calf especially while lifting the aching leg on a chair and lightly leaning forward trying to reach the toes BUT MAKE SURE NOW PAIN OCCURS !!!!
The goal is to go only till slight pulling sensation is felt!.
Start with the toes leaninng in the straight up and then out!. Good luck with the recovery!.
Also high levels of vitamin C ( 1000 - 1500 mg) helps to get rid of the muscle fatigue but only for 2-3 days then stop it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think u need MRI Scan - xrays only show up bones!.
Even scans, though, don't always show up a problem!.
It could be ligaments (look up cruciate ligaments on net)!.
Possibility of trapped nerve!?
You may eventually need to see a Consultant to be able to properly diagnose the problem!.
Hope you get fixed very soon!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
