Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Since the 'heavy' running weekend of the thunder run the bit at the bottom of my left shin or top of the ankle if you like hurts if I lift my foot up and doing stuff like going down steps. There is no swelling or bruises evident. Tried self massage and rollers no joy. elevation & ice seem to make it worse, so I'm trying to keep it warm!

Anyone else had this, know what its called & what fixed it? Or should I hop of to GP?

Cheers

sounds like basic inflammation of either the ankle joint or muscles up the shin. Not surprising after a big step up in mileage. MICE & heat, and generally allow it time to recover.

Got something to say?
