Repetitive use would make the muscles in front of shin to work harder and does not relax.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
Shin splints are an overuse problem. You get shin splints from overloading your leg muscles, tendons or shin bone. Shin splints happen from overuse with too much activity or an increase in training. Most often, the activity is high impact and repetitive exercise of your lower legs.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

Body takes time to adapt and grow. If the pain is in the bone, please check for tender spots. If present, you may need to lower activity below pain threshold. If pain is in muscles, adding stretching and strengthening exercises may help.

If you have leg pain then you have to rule out the causes for having leg pain. First of all check your weight and your haemoglobin levels, as anaemia always leads to the symptoms of being tired and also having leg pain though there are no issues with the knee joint or back pain. If not if the pain radiates down the back of thigh and legs then it might be due to sciatica. Kindly consult the nearby physiotherapist. Hope you recover soon from the leg pain.

Dear Lybrate user,
- give rest to the limb
- apply ice pack for 5-10 min 3 times a day on the affected area
- apply pain relief gel three times a day
- take a pain relief tablet after meals 2-3 times a day
- get x-ray of the affected area to rule out any bony injury.
