Compartment syndrome is when the fascia doesnt allow the calves to expand when used and it restricts blood flow and oxygen to the calves, which can lead to nerve damage....it can be chronic or either a case of being acute....my orthopedic surgeon thinks i may have compartment syndrome.... i have the same symptoms...cant run anymore, hurts to walk , i got the whole 9 yards.....their setting me up with a specialist to run the test to see if that is what it is....he has me on anti-inflamitories,,naproxen...I was just wondering if anyone has experienced this and to see what the results were
