Despite being a runner, I have not been able to run since January 2018. I have had two episodes of shin splints during summer and fall 2017 and the problems started at wintertime. the same year. I work as a nurse, and during my shifts back then I could feel a weird "stiff and tired" feeling in the medial tibial area. This went on, and despite recieving shockwave-therapy in sping 2018, the leg pain did not become better. I have also got two MRs showing absolutely nothing wrong. I started seeing a physical therapist in August, and we have been working on my ankle stability and tibialis posterior strength ever since. My ankle stability has become better indeed but the pain and tired/stiff feeling in my leg haven't lessened. I basically cannot enjoy a normal day playing With my children/doing housework etc. without having an achy leg towards the end of the day. Even after a basic gym strength workout I'm experiencing discomfort and/or pain.
If that is of any interest, I have a large accessory navicular bone on my affected leg, though the pain is not sitting there but 20 cm above. I experienced lots of pain and discomfort in that accessory boney area 10 years ago but it haven't bothered me ever since.
What I'm asking for is advice and opinions. This Whole situation is eating me up, and I've started to feel depressed the last couple of days. I also feel like I don't have a normal quality of life.
Is there any chances of my returning to running soon/ again? What treatment options can I/ should I consider? What are yout thoughts?
I really appreciate all answers!
