Nathan, I'm 70 and don't run. I do walk the dog and swim gently for hips and legs. Last October, I got up from sitting down, couldn't walk on the left leg, couldn't put any weight on it. Incredibly painful. Community nurses came out and said it was a ligament injury. Prior to that in the spring, I thought I had been bitten because my leg was sore, it stung. The open sore never went away, its about the size of a sixpence. A few months ago, I began getting serious shin pain right down the front of the shin bone. Of a night while resting it is a stabbing pain like the bone is being stabbed in one spot. This morning when I got up the shin bone was so painful I could hardly walk or put any weight on the leg. Then this evening when I got up from sitting down, it was the same again, couldn't put any weight on the leg, incredibly painful. What do you think? They took an x-ray of the knee and they said OA. I've seen the neurologist and he is asking for MRI scans of lower back. The neurologist asked if I'd been sent to orthopaedics, I had for my back and hips but not for the shin. I seem to be going round in circles. What do you think? I'm concerned, because stabbing shin pain in the night can be a symptom of bone cancer.
what do you think about the efficacy of bone stimulators in healing difficult stress fractures? do you have any experience with them? thanks!
Great videos Nathan, thanks very much!
Of course! Thank you for watching!
How fix compartment syndrome
The literature on bone stimulators for stress fractures isn’t great. I think there’s a lot more impactful stuff to focus on (fueling, sleep, exercise programming), but someone has access they might not hurt.
