Shin splints?
I have shin splints. I rested them for just about a week and a half, next ran and they still hurt. Any concept on how to fix them?
Do I need to turn to a podiatrist or orthopedic?

Shin splints are small tears in the muscle at their point of attachment to the shin bone. It is associated with the repetitive use of the ankle dorsiflexors (the muscle bulk beside the shin bone-tibia, on the outer side from the front). It can be prevented by warm up. The most effective charitable of warm-up is by stretching. You can do this by sitting on your heel so that your soles are facing upwards. Increase the stretch by lifting the big toe upward.
Small tears or microtears within the muscles are believed to facilitate growth of more muscle fibers as a result of the repair process. Increased number of muscle fibers = enlarged muscle mass = increased strength.
Shin splints can be treated by rest, icing and/or wearing proper footwear.
See a sports medication specialist and get a prescription to outpatient Physical Therapy.
Hope this help.
