It happens when im doing intense and quick moving cardio (interval training, sprinting on a treadmill or outside, jump rope).
Its not really shin splints since the front of my legs (shins) never bother me. My entire lower ankle kinda becomes inflamed and my calves start to hurt. I even took a body tape measure with me today and measured before and then immediately after they started hurting. My ankle area like swelled up almost an inch more.
I have no idea what the fuk it is the whole area burns and swells up a bit, and my calves veins even start shooting out like crazy. I have no idea what it is but it happens often and it really prevents me from pushing harder during cardio. Rest and ice doesn't do anything, i can sit on my ass for a week and then next session it happens.
Reps to anyone who has any idea what this could be. I have an appointment with my doctor in a month for a physical so ill bring it up to him but for now not sure what to do.
