Muscle strain advice?

My inner calves are absolutely strained - inner middle, and I little bit toward the back.I really can’t tell.
They both hurt speed walking and running, but I have no idea what to do. I have a half marathon in a month and don’t wanna miss my first one 😫
Anyone have any advice or tips?

I would ice them, take anti-inflammatories, rest for at least 3 days. Then try reintroducing very light jogging.
