What exactly are shin splints and what are you supposed to do about them?

If you have shin splints are you supposed to ice it or heat it?

  • Answer:

    Ice the shins once a day. Leave ice on for 20 minutes, off for 40, repeating this pattern 3 times in a row. Massage the painful area as often as desired. This can reduce swelling.
