So I've been having trouble with my calves because of work and I wanted to know how I can recover fast ? I can barely run or walk.

The answer to your question is -- YOU CAN'T!!!!!!

I recently had a situation where I had very bad calves ( couldn't really understand it because I had been running a lot over the past 5 months and never had a problem) -- so I rested for 4 days and the frozen calves went away. Since then I have run a non-stop 5Klms and a 11Klm run/walk and I am back to normal.

Totally agree YOU CAN'T !!!!!. - Massaging, foam roller, stretching, icing will all help speed the process but rest is the crucial ingredient.
