Professional podiatry assessment and treatment for shin pain, shin splints, and lower leg overuse injuries.
Shin pain, commonly referred to as shin splints, describes pain along the front or inner edge of the shin bone (tibia). It is a common overuse injury, particularly in runners, walkers, and people who spend long hours on their feet.
