So I did a stupid yesterday. Ran up and down two flights of stairs quite a lot. (Hurricane coming. Wanted all my crap off the basement floor.) Now my calf muscles hurt. Tylenol ain't working and I can't have ibuprofen due to other meds. I was wondering if there were any yoga exercises that might help. Preferably not down dog or anything else that involves me being head downward for any length of time, on account of I get dizzy. Or should I just stay sat and let my body deal with my stupid on its own time?

I second legs up the wall. I do some time in that pose every day because my hamstrings are prone to being really tight: it helps prevent that kind of soreness in the first place.

If it really hurts, though, leave it for a day or two and then try again.
