You'll also more than likely to feel a burning sensation and tenderness along the muscle and shin, Graham Brady said. More often than not, people experience shin splints on the medial side of the leg (the part of the shin that faces the other leg), Panchal said. Overuse of the muscles that attach to the front of the shin, abnormal loading in the lower leg due to your hip position and improper running form can cause the muscle to micro-tear away and if the muscle begins to tear away from the bone, it will lead to shin splints, said Graham Brady. "Shin splints happen when the muscles that are along the shin bone start to micro-tear at the bone a little bit", said Carly Graham Brady, DPT, running coach and owner of On Track Physical Therapy and Performance in Rochester, NY. The pain is usually brought on by exertion, he said. "Shin splints are considered to be pain and discomfort experienced in the legs from constant and repetitive running or activities that involve a lot of running", said Neil Panchal, MS, ACSM-CPT and an exercise physiologist at the University of California San Francisco Human Performance Center. But pain, especially in your shins, shouldn't be ignored.
Whether you've been running for years or are just getting started, you probably know that achy muscles and joints are inevitable.
