A member asked:
On my right shin it is very painful when something rubs against it or if the skin stretches, there is nothing visible on the skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unusual: Even though the shin has very little padding over it,it is unsual to have tenderness without recent trauma,discoloration or swelling. See your Physician if symptoms persist and appropriate tests such as an x-Ray will be ordered if the physician deems it advisable.
