Shin splints: What are they and how do I get rid of them?
Shin splints are a condition that can result from improper equipment, poor foot placement, or from muscle imballance. They are characterized by generalized pain in the front of the lower leg and are particularly common in runners. Shin splints are often cured by simply getting new shoes. It may also help to run on different terrain, preferably grass. It’ll help absorb the shock. As with any injury, consult your Doctor for diagnosis and a rehab plan.
