Are there any people here that have fixed shin splints?

Can you give some advice?

Will running on grass help, or will they just come back when you start running on concrete again?

You probably need to fix your running form. I had terrible shin splints and I could barely run a mile straight through. Just ran 3 miles the other night because I started leaning forward more while running and landing around the middle of foot.

Also get some new running shoes. Things aren't meant to last longer than 7 or 8 months.

Also I bought some £100 special running shoes for my foot shape and I still got splints the first time I used them

Got a refund at least

I had some success foam rolling my shins. It wasn't a miracle cure, but it seemed to help

Strech your shins before you run and if you get them while running strech them some more.

Also ice shins after you run.

Fuck forgot to mention, losen up when you run. I notice when I run I tense my calves before impact. Just relax more.

Well, first thing first: Stop running and jogging right now and wait until all symptoms subside.

Never run on concrete, it's a guarantee you will get shin splints.

I already foam roll and I stretch before and after any runs

I've been doing strengthening exercises for the muscles in the lower legs too

Still getting splints

Maybe's it's because I've gained quite a lot of muscle in the past couple years, 120lbs to 190

Are you wearing running shoes?

Why don't you try running on grass and find out yourself? Everyone is different.

If nothing works, see a physiotherapist. I've had godawful shin splints from basketball. Had to get personalized insoles and physiotherapy, but it mostly helped.

He can analyse the way you run and give some specific pointers, tips, and exercises. It worked for me, in any case.

not an expert but stretching your shin muscles after a run helps tremendously .

get on your knees and lean back so your sitting on your feet.
reach behind you and lean back
you should feel it above the ankle on the front of your legs up to your knees
.

Gradually increase the intensity of your workout and shin splints won't be a problem. If you go from squatting 3x a week to running 10km in one day you're gonna fuck your shit up if you have shin splints.

look up the hoka brand of running shoes, there might be other but those are the one I know.

They have oversize soles, which is good if you run a long time and/or on hard surfaces.

try to land on the region of the foot right past the toes, not on the heel.

in the beginning you need to run short distances (say <20 minutes) and always warmup. slow running or biking are good warmups.

I have shin splints and haven't been running since two weeks but my shins still hurt. How fucking long does it take to heal

I had em from being too fat and out of shape. If it only hurts to walk on, and there's no agonizing pain from pushing on the bone, it's just sore muscles. Massage them and work on your form.

I had shin splints in HS track. Stop running landing on your heal and bending your foot to the front. Land FLAT on your feet. I never had splints again. A marine from the 70s taught me that.

Army here. Back in high school track I had horrible shin splints. Then I learned to land on the middle of my foot without slamming my feet (should barely hear your foot land) and don't have your feet land past your knees (if you were standing still/straight your feet should not pass where your knees naturally stand)

Now I have no issues with shin splints and I probably run around 8-15 miles a week.
