Shin Splints, also known as Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome, is a common overuse injury that causes pain along the inner edge of the shinbone (tibia). Shin splints often occur in runners, athletes, and those who increase physical activity too quickly. Symptoms include a dull ache or sharp pain in the shins, which can worsen with activity and may include tenderness or swelling. With appropriate treatment, you can relieve pain, prevent further strain, and get back to your active lifestyle.
Living with shin splints can make activities like running, walking, or even standing uncomfortable and challenging. You may feel limited by the pain in your shins, unsure how to find effective relief and prevent recurrence. With a comprehensive approach to care, you can manage symptoms, strengthen your lower legs, and return to your favourite activities.
