I was about to stop running for month thinking it was possibly a pulled muscle. How long do they typically last? Thanks John,

It's the sheath surrounding the bone. Rest and ice help with the problem. Also strengthen the shin is important. Place cans of soup in a sock. Hang your leg over a couch. Place the sock on the toes and flex the toes lifting the sock up and down. I hope this helps. John Delia,
