Tried to search for someone who had this problem ever, but couldn't find anything. Anyways whenever I do squats and/or deadlift (especially squats), I get a pain that is located near the top of my tibia. After doing some research I think it might be my quadriceps tendon. However, when I go to massage or press on this area the pain is a very sharp shooting pain that feels like it's coming from the bone itself.
Recently I have been working on my form for my squats and am really focusing on going all the way down (I mean hamstrings touching quads then back up). I do my best to be conscious and push with the heels of my feet. My routine today had me squatting and then later on deadlifting, and I felt the pain a little while squatting but it really flared up when doing the deadlifts.
Also a side note, I get this same pain sometimes when I'm playing basketball or running on a flat hard surface (like pavement). I was just wondering if anyone else had a similar problem like this or has any clue as to what it might be from the symptoms described. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ryan
