You don't have to buy any products. A lazy option is to wait a few days. A more active solution is to go for a recovery run the next day. Short and very slow will do. Really slow, like as slow as caterpillars. Gets fresh blood coursing through the damaged and hurting muscles. Works wonders.
Train through it. Warm up with a few sets of squats, heel raises, lunges, all the usual malarkey. Do some running, Feel it go away, feel it come back when you cool down. Violent liniment helps, but you can't get the good stuff any more.

i am doing sprints so i won't be doing a slow run. instead i tried a swim, not sure it helped, but it didn't make it worse.
my coach said just do a very long warm up with lots of dynamic workout. i think i will take it easier on the track if i am stiff and sore.
i've also tried resting, the lazy option
