Known medically as medial tibial stress syndrome, shin splints is pain in the shin, usually caused by exercise such as running. The pain tends to affect both shins. It typically starts soon after beginning exercise, becomes increasingly severe while exercising, then gradually disappears with rest.
It can usually be treated by avoiding the exercise that caused the condition and by using ice packs and pain relievers to reduce pain
