TKR 8 months ago - more shin pain!

[Guest guest]

Hi All

for the past few weeks I have been having really nasty shin pains, mostly

when sitting. The whole of the front of my leg below the knee feels tight,

and this often extends around to the back of the leg too. I did have a

period of not being able to find the time to go for my regular walks, (it

was far too hot for a while, plus demands on my time ate up the days) and I

wondered if it might be that, but for the last couple of weeks I've been

back to doing my walks - not every day, but every 2 - 3 days, plus line

dancing once a week. It's still not better. It means that driving is painful

again. Walking, it's fine, it's just when the leg is bent when sitting.

I've made an appointment to see my GP on Tuesday, but I was wondering if

anyone has any ideas what it might be?

Thanks

Lin
