Tenderloin

I've not had this pain before so thought I'd ask here.
The front of my shin just above the ankle was really painful yesterday but just my left side - do I need to do better stretching?

Don't want to set off alarm bells, but that's typically a sign of extensor tendinitis (google it) - I've just had it.

Have you been doing a lot more miles recently? Tends to come with over use. Typical cure is rest and stretches unfortunately

Shouldn't be cause by overuse - but I have spent the summer doing nearly all my running on treadmills. Might be time for new running shoes as well and try doing them up less tight.

It's strange I've not really suffered it before.
