dont stop walking, im serious i had that last year, it sucked. I would stretch on a step, and just keep wakling as much as possible to keep them loose. went away after 3-4 days.

take vitamin E. This helps with my muscle soreness. Also sit in a whirlpool at your gym after workouts.

whirpool and/or any anti inflamatory will do

do some high rep work (20+) with your body weight ( calf raises on a step 1 leg at a time ) . that should help flush them out and relieve some of that cramping sensation. Also advil, and alternating ice and heat.

In addition to the suggestions above--what about an Epson salt bath...that should help.
