Dangit, I've gotten so behind on your blog. Just read this and I wondered what the ortho surgeon said. I have lower leg issues (shin and calf) so it'd be interesting to hear what he said.

I hope you lose that leg pain soon!!!

Shin pain is the worst!! I would say just keep doing the elliptical for a while...your legs might just need some rest. Hope you're better soon!

I have my athletes do an ice massage. You fill dixie cups and then freeze them. THen you tear down the sides of the cups do about a 5 minute massage over the area that bothers you. My kids love it.

Well, I don't have any good advice. I read what the others have written and I think they have covered it. Hope the doc can help. Is it the same doc you talked to before?

I did vote for you though. :)

Oh I am so glad you will be able to talk to a professional. That should give some peace of mind.
I haven't had shin pain, but there are so many possibilities. If resting helps it, I'd give it a few days in a row off before testing it. Sounds like you are being smart!

2011-09-28T15:30:14.261-06:00

I have had my share of the shin splints and the best thing is to ice, and do stretches. Rest is also the best medicine. I hope you feel better soon because those shin splints can stress you out!!

2011-09-28T13:33:20.880-06:00

Hmmm...hopefully the professional will be able to tell you what's going on. If it IS shin splints...I've dealt with them off an on over the years and since I've started doing my daily ankle mobility exercises and ESPECIALLY keeping my calves stretched out good, the shins have given me no issues at all!

2011-09-28T13:07:03.570-06:00

I had something that sounds similar a few months ago and it went away on its own with a small decrease in running. I used some Arnica cream on the sore area daily too. Hope it feels better soon!

You are so smart not to further aggravate it...I keep thinking pain will going away, but that's just stupid!

I hope you heal fast!!!!

So sorry about the shin pain. I don't know much about it but I do know it is better to ask for help. It may be nothing major. It may just come with the terrority. i would just go to a PT and get it looked at. I think it will give some answers and hopefully peace of mind. Thats what I do anyway. I know how hard it is. I totally feel for you!! But you will get through this and it could be really nothing, just go get it checked out, do what you need to do and before you know it this will be a small blip on the radar. keep us updated

2011-09-28T12:15:44.056-06:00

This is incredibly similar to what I was going through a few weeks back and may just be a result of over training (i.e. pushing yourself really hard during the half). I would take a week off of running and then ease back into it and see how you feel. I also took an ice bath every day, spot iced, and foam rolled like a crazy lady. It took a lot of time to baby it but it was totally worth it.

2011-09-28T12:02:58.096-06:00

it sounds like shin splints. I know you know WAY more than me but I just recently posted about this so go to following posts and basically just read the comments of everyone's suggestions on the first one, in the second I demonstrate the exercises I have been doing. They sure are working for me!!!

Sorry to hear about this! I'm not going to offer my unprofessional diagnosis, but I hope you get an idea of what it is/how to treat it asap.

2011-09-28T11:27:30.262-06:00

Bummer! I am sorry your shin is hurting. I generally am one to keep running if it is something minor that goes away within the first mile and doesn't get worse during/after a run, and I am really good about icing sore spots. I don't like to take ibuprofen or anything else. If it is a shin splint there isn't much more you can do. I hope it feels better soon!

2011-09-28T11:10:12.221-06:00

so sorry to hear that you are still experiencing pain. i know so little about shin splints etc but it seems like if it goes away and does not get worse...hopefully it is something that will heal quickly. hope the doctor tomorrow has some good advice!
