from exercising too much such as running way much more and coming down on your foot the wrong way (Patient C had been running track. All of a sudden, she felt tightness and pain in the back of her calf. The X-ray shows no breaks or fractures, and an MRI shows no nerve damage.) this is basically showing that she may have came down on her foot too hard. Environmental causes of calf swelling may be related to lifestyle habits or certain exposures.
Natural causes: The condition of the body can sometimes be enough to cause calf swelling. Swelling is often linked to the retention of water which is increased by being overweight, pregnant, or while menstruating. Remaining on your feet for long periods or, conversely, sitting for an extended duration may also lead to a swollen calf.
A myth would be that you can get AIDS or HIV by touching or kissing someone who has the STD. In fact, you can only get it from them by touching their blood or through intercourse.
