SHINS SPLINTS RELIEF by SOLE Custom Footbeds

Shin Splints Treatment

Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (Shin Splints)

MTSS (Shin Splints) is a condition in which stress, over time, has caused an injury to the medial (inside) part of the tibia (lower leg). It is a typical overuse injury and very common in athletes who pound the legs - runners, sprinters, figure skaters, gymnasts, etc.This is one of the reasons why proper footwear is essential for any running sport.

Shin splints occur from doing too much exercise without appropriate rest. All properly designed exercise programs dictate a slow, progressive, increase in volume and intensity over a long period of time. A sudden jump in volume overloads your ability to heal during rest and injury may result. It is important to realize that it is not exercise that makes you stronger but REST. Exercise breaks the muscles down and during rest they become stronger.

Solution

Always wear good supportive footwear when exercising
Wear shoes or shoe inserts that correct for a tendency to roll your ankles inward (pronation) while walking or running if this is a problem for you
Always include stretching exercises for your calf muscles and Achilles tendons in your warm-up and cool-down routines and make sure to keep your muscles warm
Avoid exercising on overly soft or overly hard surfaces, such as sand or cement. Generally, solid surfaces that have some 'give' or bounce to them are best
Avoid overdoing any type of exercise. Stop immediately and rest if your legs begin to feel weak, stiff or sore
