A member asked:
My shins hurt quite a bit when i run or jog. is there any way to prevent the pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Couple possibilities: Based on the information available, i believe the most likely diagnostic possibilities include shin splints, medial tibial stress syndrome, exercise induced compartment syndrome, or a stress fracture. The treatments for each are different. See an orthopedist for an evaluation.
