So i hurt my leg......i strained sumtihing but wat is it.....below he knee by the side of my left leg?


i dont think is a calf muscle strain because it usually occurs in the back leg but my injury is on the left...had this injury before except last time i heard a pop in the same spot what is that muscle called

Can you be more specific? There are several muscles involved in your lower leg. On the left side of your left leg? That is the outside of the leg? If so there are 2 major muscles on the back of the leg and the soleus is deep to the gastrocnemius. So it is felt on the sides and not the back of the lower leg. You also have muscles that can not be felt by touching your leg. However there are some muscles like the peroneus that can be felt on the outside and the tibialis anterior that are in the front next to the bone. If you heard it pop then you probably pulled it rather than just a strain. If so then maybe you strained it where you pulled it last time.
