Presented by Ileana Shannon for 3rd period
Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome is also known as Shin Splint, and is caused by overusing your muscle for your legs.
It is most commonly seen by new/conditioned runners and jumpers. It also affects those who has flat feet since it increases stress on the soleus muscle.
Press your fingertips on your shin to feel a sharp pain. They are most painful to handle when you lift your foot up.
It's located at the distal and posteromedial tibia (or where your shin is located).
Avoid overdoing your running and try doing movements or sports that have less impact on your shins.
It requires a physical exam of your foot and lower extremity.
