<p>hey man i took a sports medicine course my senior year of high school…and i was on the track team with some pretty bad shin splints…you want to ice them legs for 20 minutes in a whirlpool/ice everyday and stretch your calves a lot. Before running, rock back and forth from the heel of your feet to the toes. When you’re studying, before you go to sleep, on the toilet, do some toe tappers…when my shins bother me, i do about 400 toe tappers before i go to sleep. try and learn some massage techniques for the shins or the muscles that support your shins. It’ll hurt alot, but it helps. Cross-fiber massage on the shin bone itself, and some deep tissue on the muscle surrounding the shin. if you have any questions just ask, and remember to stretch.</p>
