How to massage the calf?
A healthy calf will slowly heat up after being surrounded by hands, and it is elastic. When you pinch it gently, you will feel soft muscles and tight skin. It won't hurt much to press with your fingers, but it will recover soon after you release your fingers. There are also unhealthy calves. The temperature will be a little colder than that of your hands immediately. When you cover your hands for a while, it will be hot and inelastic, but it will be a little hard, and sometimes it will be swollen. It will hurt a little when you press it with your fingers, and there will be traces of pressing after you release it.

Lift your calf, put your instep on your left thigh, hold your ankle with your left hand and fix it, and wrap your right hand around your calf with your thumb. Massage your calf with your four fingers from your ankle in the field.
