I am not athletic. when pressure is applied to my shins, i feel pain in the bone. what does this mean.

Start exercise.: That seems kind of normal even in an athletic person. There is nothing protecting the bone there. It's never too late to start a moderate exercise program - 30 minutes of aerobic exercise 3 days per week.
