Hi! I have been having some issues in my legs. I will be briskly walking across campus to my classes and both of my shins and knees will start hurting really bad to the point where I feel like I can barely walk anymore. But the weird thing is that I play ice hockey and tennis and they never hurt then. Is it shin splints or something more severe? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

My first thought is not shin splints because you only feel the pains sometimes. I'm wondering if it is caused by pronation or some other foot related problem because when you are playing hockey and tennis you must be wearing supportive athletic foot gear which would at least temporarily eliminate the stress and pain.
