See a specialist Orthopedic Surgeon for a 2nd opinion. If that does not provide answer, consider seeing Rheumatologist and Neurologist.

Shin pain at your age could be sign of “shin splints” posterior tibialis tendonitis. Over pronation or “flat feet” causes these type of symptoms. If active running very common. Treatment consists of custom orthotics made by a podiatrist.
