The Doctor Said

I have shin splints. I was so excited to hear that come out of his mouth. I was freaking out a little bit (a lot), that I had done something really nasty to myself, but I haven't.

He asked me some questions. Did some fondling of my leg and foot. Asked some questions. All in all it was pretty quick. 10 minutes and I have answer to my questions and concerns.

Follow the advice and I'm golden! I'm off to get an ice pack!

Seems weird to be saying Yay to this - but Yay!!! Glad it isn't anything more serious!

Yup...I've had shin splints and they are quite painful. But they do go away, as you said you just have to follow the advice...and take it a bit easy until they heal.

Glad it's not something serious!

I got them often when teaching and my shoes were too old...so get a new pair when they healed.
What happens is the flesh mores off the bone...very painful.
