Hi,
Is it normal for runners to have bumps along their chin bone and for those bumps to be extremely painful when pressure is applied on them? I have been experiencing these symptoms for several weeks and sometimes I could be standing around and just get a sudden sharp pain in my ching that causes my leg to jerk. I don't think this is normal..... is it possible that I am developing a lower leg stress fracture?
I appreciate any advice, personal stories, etc.
if u mean shin instead of chin yea, i have them, I dont know what causes them though cause i really dont do that much mileage. I say ice and check back. The pain went away but i think the bumps are still there.

not normal
Depends I guess. How long ya been running? Could be stress fracture. Might want to get checked out.
When I first started running I developed very bad shin pain. When not running it was hard for me to even walk. My friend who was a15 flat 5K runner at the time told me "if you were to grab the shins of any runner and squeeze they would jump out of their skin from the pain". Meaning everybody had that shin pain. BS. Mine went away after about 6 months to a year and it has never come back (30 years later). I run more than I ever have.
