Repeat shin fractures and cause information needed

It’s been a year since our son graduated with a degree in computer science.

His plan after four years was to get in even better shape physically and join the Navy. See the thread here:

Well, things have not worked out as planned. As a student athlete, he was used to swimming, running and weights year round, but he has fractured his shins/heels about 4-5 times in the past year, setting his plans back.

In thinking about it, he says it’s been going on for years. He just stopped running until he could run again.

MRI’s and doc visits haven’t come up with an answer to the repeated leg fractures.

He hasn’t given up on his dream, but he’s being realistic and looking for a job, while he works on the issue.

His next step is an endocrinologist.

I thought I’d ask the all knowing here on PPOT why he keeps fracturing his shin bones.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

PS. Anyone looking to hire a CS major?
