Does shin bone pain relate to copd

  1. Hi , and thanks for your question - it's a good one! You may be aware we cannot provide medical advice or diagnostics over the internet (for your own safety), but your concern certainly warrants a reply.
    Are you having some type of leg pain? Since everyone's health is different, you may want to take your concern up with your physician? Depending on how long the shin bone pain has been affecting you - you may want to do it sooner rather than later.
    What do you think?

    1. Thanks I think it's to do with brittle bone disease or DVT as I suffer with these I also have diabetes & inflammation I've had problems with before, my legs feet ,& ankles swell through. Water retention , I think I should phone my GP or NHS to get advice cause it could be something that needs sorting asap, or it may be nothing to worry about, right now I'm worried cause of pulmonary embolism in my legs cause I've had cramp too.

      1. Hi CM4ff5 - we're happy to be able to reply to your concerns. I would agree with this, your latest response. It's a good idea to reach out for either your doctor or the NHS, based on the continuing issues you've shared about your medical conditions. All of your stated concerns are valid and would point you towards making the call. I will wish you 'good luck!', and ask if you would please check back and keep us apprised of your progress.
        Wishing you well,
