My foot

Question
I enjoy walking and consider myself fit. However over the past couple of weeks I have had a painful muscle in my left leg in the calf at the rear and this has lead to a numb spot in the sole of my foot by my heal, which is most uncomfortable, any explainations?

HI MARY
SORRY SO LATE HAVE TWO BITCHES READY TO WHELP PUPPIES BEEN SO BUSY WITH THEM WAITING?

ABOUT YOUR LEG AND FOOT, THIS IS UNREAL TO HAVE IT GO INTO THE FOOT.  U MIGHT WANT TO QUIT AND REST, DO HOT TUB SOAKS A BIT OF TWENTY MINUTES A COUPLE TIMES A DAY AND START OFF SLOWLY.  YOUR MAYBE PUSHING YOURSELF AND TORE A MUSCLE?  TEARING MUSCLES OR BRUISING THEM CAN LEAD TO MANY COMPLICATIONS OF SET BACKS IN WORKOUTS.  ARE U DOING A GOOD WARM UP AND COOL DOWN NO MATTER IF YOU DID A SWEAT, THIS IS MOST IMPORTANT FOR THE MUSCLES AND LIGAMENTS.  THEY NEED TO BE STRETCHED BEFORE AND COOLED DOWN AFTER ANY EXERCISE BE IT LIGHT OR STRONG.
STRETCHING IS SO GREAT BEFORE DOING ANYTHING OR JUST BECAUSE DURING THE DAY AT HOME, LAY DOWN AND STRETCH MAKE UP A GOOD ROUTINE TO NICE MUSIC AND SEE THE RESULTS IN A MONTH.
I DID THIS IN KARATE YEARS BACK IN BETWEEN CLASSES TO KEEP FIT AND FLEXABLE, IT MADE ME FEEL SO GREAT!  I JUST STRETCHED EVERYTHING I COULD THINK OF IN A KINDA MADE UP ROUTINE TO GET MOST ALL.  IT WAS FUN TO MAKE MY OWN THING UP TOO.
U MIGHT WANT TO VISIT A FOOT DOCTER TO SEE IF YOUR ARCHES FELL OR WAS STRAINED BEYOND CAPACITY?  GET XRAYS OR WHATEVER THE DOCTER THINKS NECESSARY TO HELP YOU WITH THIS PROBLEM FOR I AM NOT A DOCTER, JUST LEARNED WHEN I HURT ENOUGH TO GET TO ONE FOR HELP WHEN I DID NOT HEAL WITHING A WEEK OF REST.  WHEN THE SOLE OF THE FOOT HURTS THAT COULD ALSO BE SPURS STARTING A FORM OF ARTHRITIS FROM THE WALKING USE THE BEST TENNIS SHOES U CAN AFFORD AS I HAD THIS AND THE PAIN IN MY HEELS WAS ALMOST UNBEARABLE.  I WOULD CRY WHEN I LEFT MY FEET DROP FROM MY BED OR COUCH.  PAIN U BETCHA.

WARM REGARDS
