Shin Splints?  When the shin takes a beating over time, it can cause inflammation in the soft tissues around the tibia, the larger of the two lower leg bones. Reducing that inflammation is one part of healing. Other strategies flow from asking, why is my shin taking such a beating? Sometimes inviting more friends to the party to help mitigate the forces at the foot/ankle and lower leg can be helpful.
