      i have no clue?! my only concern right is my health right now and recovering. the spasms would begin in tendues and the lateral and anterior compartments of my calves would contract. Nothing could make them relax. Even after resting for weeks the muscle still felt contracted. Now after surgery, it feels soft, like a normal muscle. It's much much much MUCH MUCH MUCH worse than shin splints. Actually, I developed shin splints and stress reactions in both my tibias from the compartment syndrome. It's rare in dancers, more often seen in runners.

      2-3 months.. i'm taking day by day, injuries are never easy.. and thank you, i hope to be able to compete and perform as much as possible when i go back to dancing. to finally dance without the agonizing spasms i've had for the past year will be amazing :)

      I had a fasciotomy done in the anterior and lateral compartments of both of my calves.. i was diagnosed with chronic exertional lateral compartment syndrome.. my anterior tibialis muscles grew too big for the fascia around the muscle (like a ballon over filled with air, it loses elasticity) blood wasn't flowing into and out my muscle properly because the pressure in the muscle was unusually high, causing horrible muscle spasms and tissue damage.. in the surgery, they made slits in the fascia, so the muscle can expand. if i didn't have the surgery, it would have gotten worse and worse as the tissue died.. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/chronic-exertional-compartment-syndrome/DS00789
