Shin Splints

Shin splints is a generic term that covers several different issues. Pain to the inside of the shin can happen as a result of over training, poor footwear and / or biomechanical abnormalities in the feet. Your podiatrist will assess you and offer suitable treatments. Orthotics, special insoles, can help this problem by improving foot function. Acupuncture, footwear advice and training advice can also improve this condition.
