There’s two types. One is when you have actual tiny fractures in your shin bone and the other one is muscle strain on the muscle in front of your shin. The latter is more common. A foam roller can work wonders for the muscle one.

This was mine reasoning for getting xrayed when I had pretty rough knee pain. Nothing beats peace of mind nothing that is not what was going on. Turns out it inflammation of the pes anserine bursa sack. Just a group on the inside of the knee. Given that OP has it in both legs at the same time, I would rule out skeletal issues. But again, sometimes this can be as cheap as $50 or less with insurance.
