Apparently, you can pull or strain, or even tear, a muscle in your calf this way. And apparently, my symptoms match up pretty nicely.
I've got a 3 day weekend to recover. Dr Google says the mildest strain would be greatly improved in a few days with all symptoms gone in 8 to 10 weeks.
I need 3 days to be enough time, and I need to be well enough to walk by Monday morning. I don't have a car and I walk just over half a mile one way to work, where I then work on my feet (fast food) for 7 to 8 hours a day.

Hey Nahkoe... good to hear from you... bad to hear from you over these circumstances.
When you can apply alternating heat & cold in about 15 minute increments.
Praying....
