Shin Splints Treatment Joslin

Shin Splints Pain (Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome)

  • Are you experiencing sharp pain along the inside of your shin? 
  • Does it worsen during and/or after a run or sport? 
  • Does it ache the next morning or after you cool down? 
  • Does the site on the inner shin feel tender to touch? 

At SA Running Injury Clinic, Shin Pain is one of the top 5 injuries we frequently treat, particularly among runners and footballers. 

Studies show that the condition results from the muscles pulling on their attachment to the shin bone, causing inflammation where the muscle meets the bone. 

The source of this inflammation is: 

  • Poor foot posture – excessive pronation (rolling inward) results in greater muscle pull against the shin, while excessive supination (rigid foot type) exerts more force on the shin bone 
  • Running – on hard surfaces (asphalt roads) or pre-season on hardened grounds 
  • A rapid increase in run intensity or duration after a period of little training

Shin pain can cause serious setbacks in your training, potentially putting you months behind. It’s a troublesome issue that needs immediate treatment once it appears, or even better, prevention. 

Patients often report that after a few kilometres of running or reaching half time, they can't go on. This major issue will compromise your training plans if you don't act promptly.
