Shin splints can really take the fun out of physical activity, but did you know they can become a chronic issue if left untreated? Whether you're a runner, athlete, or just enjoy staying active, here are a few simple tips to help relieve and prevent shin splints:
1) Rest & Recover – Give your shins time to heal. Avoid high-impact activities until the pain subsides.
2) Stretch & Strengthen – Incorporate calf and shin stretches, as well as strengthening exercises for the muscles in your lower legs.
3) Wear Proper Footwear – Supportive shoes can make a huge difference! Opt for ones with proper cushioning and arch support.
4) Gradual Increase in Activity – Avoid sudden increases in exercise intensity or duration. Gradual progression allows your muscles and tendons to adapt.
5) Ice & Elevation – After activity, ice your shins to reduce inflammation and elevate them to encourage circulation.
Consistency with these tips can help alleviate lower-limb pain!
