My BIL tore his calf muscle recently while jogging. He was in terrible pain for several days and all the doctor really did was give him a boot cast and lots of pain meds. He seems to have gotten better but it still is tender.
He's older and fatter than me and I won't do more than light jogging. I mostly walk "briskly." I've had my knee operated on once and that's enough. The doctor that did my surgery was very athletic. He said he's had his knees scoped several times and he was under 40.
