Why It Hurts?
IN THIS LESSON
Why do shin splints hurt so much?
It’s often tight fascia and overworked muscles in the front of your lower leg. When the tissue can’t move the way it’s designed to, every step becomes a tug-of-war between your foot and your shin. That creates burning, throbbing pain. Releasing the fascia around the shin improves mobility and reduces the strain that keeps those splints firing.
