Knots

When I run my thumbs down my shins, I feel bumps, a lot of them adjacent to the tibia, a lot on the outer side where the anterior tibialis connects, but some too on the inner side. Are these necessarily knots? I feel these bumps even in spots I don’t have pain.

me too. although im 100% pain free in the shins (but have shin split history)

see what the ppl say.

yup im waitin…haha

I tried massaging out stuff today, and the soft tissue hurts now from the pressure. Is that a bad thing?

also I noticed, I feel a LOT of bumps when I feel out my hamstrings. I can’t tell if this is just how it’s supposed to be, or if those are knots? My quads don’t feel nearly the same way.

do you ever get massages, or do any self massage? It could be adhesions and knots. You could always check it out with a physio or your doctor to be safe as well.

I never get massages, and rarely do self massage. I just tried yesterday and I think I bruised myself from going too hard.

I don’t wanna go and ask somebody to check it out and pay them if they aren’t reputable though,ya know?
