What Causes Muscle Ache In The Calves?

I have been having pain in my calf, it appears to be in the muscle. When I sit for a while I can barely stand the pain when I stand up. I walk slowly and it begins to subside and, since last night, walking and flexing the leg high in the back as I walk makes it almost go away. I feel what appears to be a knot, like a cramp, in the muscle that does not go away.
