Abstract:
We found that pain on the medial side of the leg accounted for 6.9% and 19.7% of osteoarticu-lar injuries due to drilling in soldiers in drill, especially those newly recruited. We also found that the pain was produced by an increase in tibial intramedullary pressure. An animal experimentation was done, and the results corroborated our contention. At the same time, we found that decompression of tibial medullary cavity was effective in relieving the symptom.
