I was a student there for 2 years straight, the longest of any foreigner there. I loved it. I grew a lot, you chose well.

Hi, this is an old thread but I'm still having swelling in my shin. I went to a doctor and they just gave me an ultrasound to help heal the bone. Randomly, the bone will be sore and throb, like this morning and last Sunday, but for months it wasn't sore at all, but fluid was still present. I'm scared it's forever f**ked up.

Any idea how I can get rid of the fluid on my shin?

How are they now?
Thanks for asking. My left shin still has a bubble of fluid, shin not too sore. Right shin is even better, hardly and fluid and 1/10 for soreness. Little hard bumps on the shin bones still. I try to rub a glass bottle down them daily to smooth it out.

Update: they're getting a little better. Only thing to drain fluid is laying upside down on my couch, feet up on the wall so it runs down my legs into my bladder. I looked up medical videos on leg adema.

Oh you saw! Thanks! I'll ask him to press it out

That knot needs more pressure during the draining with the hot water. The way you press it out can be tricky because doing it yourself might not be aggressive enough. Like trying to massage yourself or clean out a painful cut, we kind of pull back due to the pain, whereas having someone else help press it... well, someone else can be less "kind" haha. My trainer in Chiang Mai helped me sometimes, it was rough but it was necessary. Are you in Thailand?
Yes I train at Sit-Thailand gym. I'll have to ask someone to painfully massage it down i guess.

Hi. The way that you deal with this at this point depends on whether it is a "knot" (hard bump) or a pocket or dent with fluid. Can you take a photo of it and attach it in the reply?
Also, I assume you are not kicking on it yet, right?
I have a knot on my right shin and a dent with fluid below. On my left shin, dent with fluid. No kicking correct. Everything else.

I fought 7 days ago against a VERY strong kicker, he was about 10 lbs heavier than I am. I blocked a lot and after the fight, iced both shins for 48 hr, after that hit water massage 2 or 3 times a day, after that rub on namman muay or tiger balm. I even use compression wraps after that.. There's still fluid under my skin and shin soreness. See a doctor or any other healing advice, Sylvie? Much appreciated.

Does it matter if we drink it on an empty stomach or after some food? my current trainer said first thing in the morning to drink. the drink from the pharmacy that gives you diahrea and takes away swelling and bruises, apparently.
