Athletes, shin hurting bad?

this happened to my friend during one of our track seasons. she eventually just had to sit out and not run for the rest of the year :( i know that's not the news you want to hear, so hopefully the doctor will have some more promising predictions. This happened to me this year during track season, but it was more mild than what you are describing. i think it is just because you are probably working really hard and your muscles are screaming at you lol :) but how to fix it...you could either sit out, or put some muscle relief cream on it, ice it, put a heating bad on it, and mage your calf and shin everyday. The best of luck to you!
