Shin Splint

Hi

Wonder if anyone has any advise please!  In this last week I have started with what I think is a shin splint, but its just in my left leg.  Pain down the inside of of my shin.  Doesn't really hurt when I run, just afterwards. really dont want this to stop me running!  I have started doing some exercises that I have found on the internet and icing my leg after running. 

Thanks Ladies!

    Hi Sandra,

    Shin splints are a very painful injury so you really need to be careful if that is what you have got.  Take a look at these articles

    If the pain continues you would be best to go and see a physio
