Well since i can't walk and run at the moment i thought i would have a look around the various physio, sports injuries web sites, from what i can tell 'shin splints' is not an actual injury, it's a general catch all name that covers any pain below the knee and above the ankle.......
The injury that ticks all the boxes in my case is Anterior Compartment Syndrome (ACS), which again depending on what website you read can be treated with ice, rest, and surgery or witch craft.
So seeing that I'm no professional sportsman with 24 hour access to a physio, and all the websites seem to contradict themselves, therefore I'm going to stick with the self diagnostic approach.
My leg hurts, it will stop hurting when it is better.
