It was a rupture in my calf, a rupture of a minor tendon. I spent a few days on crutches and didn't run for 2weeks, like the doctor said. Feeling good, I played the games on wii fit plus and went for a run yesterday[almost 3 weeks after injury] and felt the same sensation I felt when it ruptured a bit ago. Is this a different tendon or did I just not give it enough time to heal? Also, if it is another tendon, should I look further into this, it doesn't seem good that my tendons are snapping. In addition to this, I am beginning to get the feeling that occurred 2 weeks prior to the rupture in my other leg.

Good running shoes, I change them out every 4mo and I stretch properly [my father, a certified personal trainer, taught me how to stretch]
I have a history of ankle issues as well as chronic pain, I was also born premature [3 mo early]
I am kind of a runner. At the bare minimum, I run 5 miles a day, every day, it is how I relax.
So, did I just not give it time to heal or should I go to a specialist and see if it is something more serious?
Thanks in advance :)
Hemorrhaging? My leg isn't bleeding if that is what you mean. Not too sure what the part about the car was about, a way of saying go to the doc?
I don't know the name of the tendon, I am so inpatient when it comes to healing. I have widespread chronic pain, it is worse, however, in my back, ankles, and knees. No surgery. Thank you Rjs27tt
So, Slinky, I am sol? Does this mean I should just run? That doesn't sound right.

Maybe its just a bone problem. Your not himoraging are you? Because if it aint then it wonot hurt. Try driving a Lexus LS400 Luxury sports car with the sports luxury package to your specialist.

You have to give your leg more time to heal. Do you know the exact name of the tendon that was ruptured? Give your legs a break... 5 miles every day seems a little excessive to me. Where do you have chronic pain? Wait a few weeks before you start running again. Did you have surgery to correct the rupture? See the link below for more information. Hope you get better soon.

The back pain, knee pain, and ankle pain all seem to be related to running. Cut down on the amount you run and see if the chronic pain in the back, knee, and ankle goes away.

You are screwed/hooped/doomed. I base that statement on 23 years of experience dealing with "injuries". Your choices are between suffering for ever and learning this http://www.hubpages.com/hub/Speed-healing-of-trauma-injuries-through-self-directed-regeneration and suffering until you get everything fix.
