What Causes Painful Shin After An Injury?
Today i got hit by a softball in my shin. The pain is getting worse now. It hurts on my shin bone where i got hit but the pain spread to my ankle, foot, and thigh. There is also a small lump on the side of my shin where i got hit and when i move my foot or ankle there is a sharp pain that goes up my leg to my thigh and it feels like im loosing feeling in my foot a little or like my leg is getting really tight. It isnt bruised but it is swollen.

Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query.
The pain in the shi following trauma can be because if the inflammation. Nothing to be panic, you can take a course of anti inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen, paracetamol and serratiopeptidase combination (if you are not allergic).
If the pain and swelling is not subsiding then consult an orthopedician and get it evaluated.
I hope I have answered your query Take care
