While my comments may or may not be relevant to you and your situation, I will offer them anyway.
As a general rule, new runners suffering from the pains which you're experience are frequently (almost always?) due to TFFFS (Too Fast, too Far, too Frequently, too Soon). New runners often have little ability to gauge how fast they're running, and are frequently guilty of running way too fast for their given level of the development of their infrastructure. The fact is, while many folks have reasonably well developed muscular and cardio-vascular systems, the physical structures which support the body and absorb the impacts (bones, joints, ligaments, and tendons) are woefully underdeveloped, and it is those very systems which take time to develop.
My advice would be to slow way-way down and keep things very slow until A) you've recovered to the point where you're not suffering pain, and B) until you're able to run say six miles at a crack.
