Do Swelling And Pain In Shin Post Injury Suggest Fracture?
Last night I took a line drive on the inside of my right shin. The was some immediate pain, but not a lot because it was really cold out. The swelling was about 2 inches high on my leg. Once I got in from the cold and resting it began to sting a lot. Now it is hurting whether I am sitting or standing. I can still walk with some pain, but is it possible that I may have fractured it?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this is not the fracture but could be muscular pain and this is nothing to worry, still if you want to rule out the possibility of fracture then better to get done the x-ray, hope this information helps take care.
