Suggest Treatment For Pain In Lower Leg

a week ago I was on vacation in Dallas. I golfed on sunday did nothing on Monday. Tuesday I went sight seeing and felt pain in my front lower leg above my ankle. It felt like a shin splint. Id rest and it wouldn t hurt. By Thursday it was very painful to walk. I went to urgent care on Sunday thinking maybe a stress fracture and they took an xray and showed nothing. Im experiencing swelling but feels a little better when I take anti inflamatories. When I do nothing it doesn t bother me. I don t know what I could of done.
