I have been getting what feels like shin splints off and on for about 6 months now. I have not been exercising so I dont know what else could cause it. I dont even know if it is shin splints. I used to dance in high school but I have not danced since 2006. The pain is in the anterior part of my tibula and it goes all the way down to my foot and sometimes as far up as my thigh. I have had an xray and it shows nothing. It get so bad that I cant sleep. For a while I though it was just water retention but it keeps coming back for no reason. I dont really exercise so that shouldnt be what is causing it.
