10. Shin Splint Injury Outlook

Shin splints are a very common form of overuse injury. The condition can be particularly frustrating for those new to exercise, as it can develop quickly and stop training. Like all injuries, however, it’s vital to address them as early as possible.

With sufficient rehabilitation, gradual training increases and the correct footwear, getting back to pain-free running is possible in the majority of cases. If however, the pain still persists after rest and treatment methods, consult a doctor or trained therapist.
