What could cause my swollen shin and difficulty walking, running, jumping, etc?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many things: Swelling may be the result of an injury, problems with circulation, nutritional imbalances amongst other things. It's tough to know without a complete medical history. I would recommend evaluation by your primary care doctor.
