How to Prevent Shin Splints

Shin splints are common injuries among active individuals.

A shin splint, which is also known as tibial stress syndrome, refers to a painful shin injury that may occur due to overexerted muscles in the lower legs, having flat feet, an increased body mass index (BMI), or a stress fracture.

Runners, dancers, basketball players, and military personnel frequently suffer from shin splints. Although risk factors such as engaging in certain activities (e.g., jogging, military training, playing basketball) increase the risk of experiencing shin splints, there are a number of strategies that help prevent this type of injury from occurring.

Let’s take a closer look at a few useful strategies.

Understanding Bunions

A bunion, which is also known as Hallux valgus, refers to a painful bump that grows outward at the base of the big toe. Many bunions develop due to genetic factors, but lifestyle choices can have a big impact. Pointed-toe shoes increase the chances of developing a bunion, while wide shoes help prevent them from forming and lessen irritation if one develops.

This condition can also be properly managed with support from a physical therapist.
