I'm so scared that I might have bone cancer. For the last couple of days I've been getting on and off pain in my shin and calf. It usually goes away when I take Advil The only way I can describe it is it kinda feels like a growing pain but I'm 19 so I'm pretty sure it's not that. I haven't done any activity on it, I've only been at work where I just stand and then sitting at home for the rest of the day. Please help I'm so scared

    Stop being scared Emily. If you had bone cancer you would have a myriad of other symptoms too. You have probably got something very simple like "split shins" which has the symptoms that you describe. Stop worrying and go to your doctor, he will soon sort you out. Let me know how you get on.
