Suggest Treatment For Burning Sensation On The Shin
I suffered a impact injury on the front of my shin (a skier ran into me), a ski or boot impacted my left leg just below the knee, upper tibia on week ago. I had X-rays the following day but no fractures were identified. It is one week to the day and I am experiencing a strong burning sensation down the front of my shin when I move from a sitting position to standing, or when lying and changing positions from my back to either left or right sides. It is excruciating for about 2-3 minutes and I am concerned if there isn t something more serious going on. Should I visit a specialist to be evaluated again?

Hello dear from my opinion yes you have to revisit you physician again for proper examination of the leg meanwhile you can take ibuprofen and ceporex tablet to reduce the pain and control infection prior to the day you will visit your specialist
