I have terrible pains in my lower legs when i do exercise. feels like claws into my calves as well as the muscles next to my shins. speaking to the bio kineticist, she suggested testing for exertional compartment syndrome. who could test if it ist?

Consider a vascular mechanism, causing "claudication". Whether this is a compartment compression remains to be seen. Although a vascular surgeon might be an eventual resource, would propose contacting your general physician initially. Screening using a NIVA arterial study might be a valuable approach.

Before you go through all that extensive testing try increasing your electrolytes and fluid intake prior to activities.
