give it a week or 2. keep doing cardio on the elliptical. ibuprofen 400-600mgs for pain, heat 20 min, ice 20 min.

after 2 weeks go see a doc if it is still hurting.

I think I am developing a shin splint. About two days ago a slight pain started, what feels like, between my muscle and the bone of the bone itself in my shin. I stopped running, and started doing cardio on elliptical. Should I stop all together? She I see my general practitioner? I spoke with the trainer about this, but I thought I would ask for a second opinion?
