Shin Splints (Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome)

Don’t Ignore That Shin Pain — Heal It Right, Run Stronger

Shin Splints, medically known as Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (MTSS), refer to pain and inflammation along the inner edge of the shinbone (tibia) — the large bone in the front of the lower leg. It is a common overuse injury, especially among runners, dancers, military recruits, and athletes who engage in repetitive impact activities.

At Physio Ace Physiotherapy & Sports Rehab Clinic, we treat Shin Splints with a comprehensive, biomechanical, and functional approach — targeting not just the pain but correcting the movement patterns and loading errors that cause it.

What Are Shin Splints?

Shin Splints develop when there is excessive stress on the shinbone and the connective tissues that attach muscles to the bone. This leads to inflammation, microtrauma, and pain, typically along the medial (inner) aspect of the tibia.

It’s a warning sign that your body is struggling to absorb the impact forces of running, jumping, or training. If ignored, it can progress to stress fractures, making early rehab critical.

“Dharmender Sir is very knowledgeable, he knows his work well, and really cares for his patients. I came to him with a chronic back pain, and he managed to make it go away. As a dancer, to dance without lower back pain is a big blessing. I thank Sir for helping me out, and I am definitely coming back for more treatments if needed!”
