I'm a bit worried. I have pain in my upper right calf after I went for my run. I don't have any inflammation or redness, but when I flex my foot upwards (when my leg is straight) it is excruciating. I'm only 16 but not sure. DVT was the first thing that came up on google.

      I won't be able to get to a doctor for 2 days so I'm not sure if that is too long to wait
