Hey all!!
I'm a sport and training fanatic! Love running. Last year I had surgery in both lower legs in 3 compartments in each leg to release the facia! I couldn't walk for 4weeks! But eventually I got back to training and did the 70.3 Ironman in January this year. After I did a 90km cycle race I rested for 1 month. When I started running again, I got compartment syndrome in one leg AGAIN!! So if I go for surgery again they will have to remove part of the facia. Which is a big surgery. I'm not very keen on doing it. But I love running. At the moment I can't even run 4min!
I need advice on what to do!! I want to run again but I'm not going for surgery.
Any advice?
