Understanding shin splints

Shin splints are a type of shin pain often linked to exercise.

Care comes first

Do not continue the exercise that caused the pain or rush back to your previous exercise level. See a GP if the pain is getting worse or not improving. Get help from NHS 111 if the pain is severe or you have injured your shin.
