| | Shin Splints |
| | Shin splints are an overuse injury which occur most frequently in unconditioned or poorly conditioned athletes who begin a new running or jumping activity. | | | Athletes with shin splints may very well have some discomfort during practice, but if an athlete suffers from pain during practice he should stop activity and ice the affected area immediately. | | | Pre-practice treatment can consist of either "massaging" the injured area with an ice cup for 10, or using a whirlpool, or other form of moist heat, for 15 -20 minutes, immediately prior to practice. |
