Calf Shin Splint
By Charlie on Apr 1, 2009 in Hearing & Orthepedic

Pain in lower leg/calf/shin?
I am getting severe pains in my lower leg, around the calfs and shin/ankle when I exercise and even now when walking. I exercise a lot, but do not do any running due to suffering shin splints last year. I have always exercised a lot – so cannot see how it could be over-working Can you suggest a supplement to help? Or a type of specialist I should see.
sounds to me like exercise induced compartment syndrome. the thick tissue surrounding your muscles (fascia) is too tight. as you exercise or walk the muscles engorge with blood but are then squashed by the tight fascia. Leads to a cramp like pains in your calves. due to the history it is unlikely to be a blood clot or anything. you need to go and see a sports specialist dr. they can do a test where they put needles into the compartments to measure the pressure in there as you walk on a treadmill. they can then do a small operation to split the fascia to relieve some of the pressure
