Sharp pain right of shin bone?

Question

it feels like a sharp piercing pain on the outside of my right leg when I stretch out my hamstring, is it a ligament?

thanks

Answer 1

Yes, this could be a ligament but based on what you describe it sounds more like a problem with a nerve in that area (an example only).

The only way to find out for sure is to see your doctor for further evaluation of the situation to see what they say.
