22. Pain on front - lateral part of shin - not localized - pain with resisted dorsiflesion - pain will decrease after blood flow is imporved






23. Repeated pull of patella tendon at tibial tuberosity on front of femur - pain at attachement of patella tendon - occurs in young athletes when grwoing to fast - they will eventurally grow out of it - cant really treat just ice a sleeve may help
