i've run on and off for a few years now but only recently have i started to do it more regularly
i've picked up an ache just on the inside of my lower shin bone, and i can't seem to get rid of it, when it feels like it's gone, after a run or during a run it appears again
it doesn't feel muscular as i can only feel it when i put weight on my leg
should i see a gp, sports physio, or just rest, any help would be appreciated
regards
andy

If it feels like its getting progressively worse then you need to get it medically attended to. Best route is probably your GP who will then probably refer you for an x-ray.
Try putting a heel insert or even two under the heel of the right foot and see if that helps - it worked pretty quickly for me.
A biomechanical video gait analysis is the only option to really see what's happening - if you live near Manchester you can get one done cheaply at Salford University School of Podiatry.
Good Luck
If it doesn't improve, do see an expert!
Good luck.
i'm gonna go and see my gp, but in the meantime, basically i need to rest, but while i'm resting can i still go into the gym and use the bikes, rowing machines and cross trainers?
