Hi
Welcome to healhcaremagic
After going through your query I concluded that you are having stress fracture of tibia before 18 weeks. It should have been healed till now. Treatment of it is rest and analgesic such such as ibuprofen. You can get x ray and bone scan to know about condition of fracture. Trying to put weight on leg gradually. Analgesic such as ibuprofen can be taken for pain relief. You can discuss with your Doctor about it. Hope your query answered. If you have any clarification then please don't hesitate to write to us. I will be happy to help you.
Wishing you a good health. Take care.
