I was limping around for a day or so. I took the rest of the week off, and this morning, feeling no pain or discomfort at all, went back to class where I promptly pulled it again 10 minutes into class.

What should I do? (Not going back to this class is not an option. I love it. I must go back.)
1600 mg of Motrin a day (Motrin not any generic).

Rest a day or so and start light stetching. Rest for a week, then get a compression sleeve for the calf. Continue eating Motrin for the first week you are back working out.
