What Causes Pain In Shin Bones?

I m a 21 year old male, I started sprinting as an exercise to keep my weight in check. I m about 5 10 and weigh around 65 kg. I started having pain in the inner sides of my shin bones of both the legs. I ignored the pain for first few days thinking of it as pain that usually follows when one first starts a new workout. But it became unbearable after a few days and I could barely run. The pain subsides slowly after resting for atleast 2 weeks but then when I started running again, the pain came back just as before.

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

There may be a hairline fracture.

You should get xray of leg in AP and Lateral view and send me the report.

Till then you can take aceclofenac + serratiopeptidase combination three times a day by prescription of your family doctor.

Do not play any game till then.

I hope it helps.

Thanks.

Dr.Singh.
