| Generally you wouldn't feel any swelling anyway since the muscle sheath doesn't stretch but..
If its on the inside.. Have you had it proffesionally diagnosed?
Just sayin, you should get it checked with a doctor, if it is bone based then you will just have to stay of it for awhile. Basically, in that situation the bone just needs to repair.
Runners often get this type of shin splints because they are running nearly everyday. When you run the bones absorb alot of impact, the result being microfractures. This happens everytime you run but it is nothing and the body repairs and becomes stronger. However when people run everyday the fractures start to add up and then you have a problem. The key to avoiding it is to remember to have adequate recovery periods from your activity of choice. Anyways, get back to us with the verdict ok? |
