anterior compartment syndrome???

[j cal]

With many hours of researching on the internet, I think I correctly diagnosed myself with anterior compartment syndrome.

My lower leg muscles hurt so bad half way through a session, I feel like getting up and leaving, but I skate through the pain.

I feel the same muscles tighten up when I walk with a quick pace.

Does anyone know of this or have experience with this??

never diagnose yourself, go to a doctor

Don't self-diagnose unless you're qualified, and even then this ain't House- seeing someone for a second opinion is a good idea. If you're concerned, see a real doctor (or in this case a licensed physiotherapist) and find out what's wrong with you for a certainty (if anything).

Doctor. Pure and simple if you have compartment syndrome swelling in your leg is choking your muscles to death. There has to be a surgical release of the compartment or the muscles within the compartment will die. Unless you want to walk around like Dr. House. MD, now.

sounds to me like you just get shin splints, but yeah go to a doctor.

Yeah pretty much what I came to say.

Same thing as everyone else has said: Get to a doctor.
