When i was a gymnast in my much younger days i was plagued with Shin Splints. I haven't experience this pain for about 7 years now.

Last night after hitting the gym for back and triceps i felt an excruciating pain on the front of my shins. It only hurts when i do the motion of pointing my foot up (which happens when i walk of course). If i point my foot down or leave it completely level i feel nothing in my shins.

It feels like the muscle is twisting inside my leg?

Could this be shin splints again? If so, what can i do about it? Do i need to see a doctor? Is there anything i can do without seeing one? And are there certain excerises and moves i SHOULD NOT be doing to aggravate this? Is there anythign i could have done TO aggravate it?
