Shin Pain while running
I have had shin splints in my right leg for almost one and a half year now wherein when I run for more than 500 metres on the go I would have severe pain in my shin bone but when I would stop and start like when I play football (play on every weekends) it doesnt pain..I also rested for almost 8/10 weeks without running or without playing football and after that I was able to run for almost 1.75 km and I feel almost negligible pain that too in only one shin for some days and then it was again back to pain in 500 metres...my x-rays don't show any stress fracture ... What would you suggest ..I am really frustrated and I want to get back to running normally Regards Imran

Hello there, Glad to know that you have knowledge of what you are suffering from...and are taking precautions for it...however let me tell you tht stress fracture has two origins one is muscular and other is bony.....which one do you have.... Dont worry shin splints do get completely cured if there is no stress fracture....only thing is it has its list of do's and dont's Get back with your xray report and present symptoms for proper analysis of your problem and treatment plan.
