Calf strains and tears involve damage to the muscles in the back of the lower leg, resulting in pain, swelling, and potential loss of function. These injuries often occur due to sudden overstretching or forceful contractions, impacting activities that involve running, jumping, or quick changes in direction.

For calf strains and tears, commonly used products for treatment include compression sleeves or wraps that provide targeted support and aid in reducing swelling. Additionally, calf braces or supports may be utilized to stabilize the injured muscles, promoting a more controlled healing environment for individuals recovering from these injuries.
