Hi Playing cricket last night, whilst fielding in close proximity I took a ball at quick pace to the shin bone. It had swollen massivley, but this morning the swelling appears to have subsided a little. Unfortunately however, I am still unable to put any pressure at all on the leg. Walking is near impossible due to the excruciating pain. It feels okay, when it s resting, however the minute I try to walk on it, the pain becomes quite unbearable. Also unfortunately a cold compress is out of the question, as any form of pressure on the spot is far too painful. Thanks D. Harris
