Anterior tibial muscle herina

[physiobob]

Unfortunately yes, there's no real way to strengthen the fascia, and it is probably weak since birth so nothing you can do about it. I did see some surgical interventions but they are really only for symptomatic issues (rather than aesthetic).

Re exercise, yes reduce the activities that put a lot of load in the areas where your issues are. Of course you still want to have a balance in your body so take a conservative approach to that. Sorry from a physio point of view there is no much more to advise. Others may have some input over time to this thread, perhaps with first hand personal or patient experience.

Thanks a lot for your help.
Just for clarity please: I assume running overloads muscles in shin and tibia area but what about swimming and cycling? Would these sports be more acceptable for my condition?

Many thanks,
