This happened to me twice during military training and it turns out I had been wearing the wrong type of trainers for almost a year plus realy overdoing the running. After a gait analysis, new trainers, physio and a few weeks rest it was fine.

love your approach to the problem, makes a lot more sense then what other doctors said!! still trying to get around the no stretching thing, but i'm pretty convinced by your explanation! :) off to try to find WHY it is happening, thanks a lot! massive morale boost!

These tips have helped me immensely! I was suffering from terible shin splints for days after my runs for about 6 months. Even after switching to minimalist shoes, they were still there. Using these tips from the Sock Doc I was able to eliminate my pain within a few (3-4) weeks. Thanks Doc!
