Pain travels from a position to another. That happens through the sensitivity of the nerves.For example: 'Mid back pain radiate' is faster since a bundle of nerves pass through your spinal chord. The prostaglandins produced due to muscle spasms or strains cause heating effects on the site of the pain.

What could cause pain in the calf of your leg There is no pain radiating from the hip However the pain does radiate down to the foot?

Pain in your calf can be as simple as a 'charlie horse' and as
bad as a blood clot. If you also have lower back pain too, then you
may have sciatic pain which originates in your lower back and can
radiate down to your leg and foot.
In any event, since the pain is continuing, you should consult
your doctor for the correct diagnosis.
