Shin Splint "Point of Pain" Taping Method

My shin splints are actually caused by rope skipping, don't do that.

i know!! over doing it is how we get hurt in the first place LOL thats good =) same here, it hurst while im just sitting but not as bad when i walk or run.... strange LOL, hope you get better =)

i have the bruise too my doctor told me it was from ignoring the shin splint and running on it, not sure if its the same case as you tho.....

did the doctor give you an estimated time of recovery?

my doctor told me the smallest amount of time is 3 weeks it could last up to a couple of months because i ignored it for about a month, im also taking anti inflammatory meds (aleve)

OMG!!! thats a lot of missed trainig :-(

i kno!!!! my doctor said i could still run and play sports, but i have to wrap it everyday and ice it and not "over do it" so im hoping it wont take that long!!

Not over do it?!?!?! If we knew how to NOT over do it we wouldnt be in this mess now would we?!?!?! LOL

But mine just reall got to be a pain in the a@@ Sunday/ But for a few weeks I felt more comfortable running than walking. I feel as if I could be ok possibly by this weekend....I hope

If you have a bruise around the area of pain you may have a stress fracture!

I have been suffering from a serious case of shin splints. This was caused by me going back to hard core exercises shortly after recovering from shin splints. Now I am out of action, but improving with a help of my physio. Rope skipping would not be good if you have shin problems. Jumping, running, will be the worse thing to do for the aching shins. Your doc/physio wil be able to tell you what you can so you won't aggravate your shins.
