I'm fighting with shin splints for 5 months now, after I first experienced it I rested for 1 month then started running again bt after 2 weeks the pain came back so I rested 2 months and started running again but after 2 weeks of easy short runs now I feel it again. What else should I try? In the meantime I was cycling so I didn't really rest for 2 months but low impact rest. I would really appreciate your advice. Thanks and thanks for all the good video's!
@@ciumas12 I've been feeling it for a while and i started doing the same things you did like rest,... , and I realised that after that period I shouldn't go and run the same distances and at the same speed as well so what I'm doing until now gradually increases the speed and distances, and the days that I run as well
@@ciumas12 I use to run 4 days a week right at the beginning of the the year but when I started felling it I tried to rest for 2 weeks, it didn't work out, so I rested for a month and since that I've increasing the speed , distances and the days I run So now I run 8 km 3 days a week That turned out to be more efficient And I'm planning to stay at these amount of days but only increase the speed and distance

When I feel those muscles getting stressed, I find that it is my running posture. I have my shoulders too high. For me, consciously relaxing and lowering my shoulders when running helps a lot. Get a good stretch in too.
I was about 45 lbs overweight and I decided to start jogging /running and I immediately started getting shin splints. It was very painful and it was very discouraging to run if it was going to hurt afterwards and even during the run. Still I kept at it. Running and jogging at least 2 or 3 days a week and slowly the pain started to lessen more and more as the days went by. So I think the 2nd theory mentioned here more closely resembles what I experienced. Fascinating
I’ve had shin splints only once, when my car broke down in the days before cell phones and I ended up walking 7.5 miles on concrete while wearing boat shoes. I now always keep a pair of Nikes and wool socks under the seat!
It's no wonder that I've been dealing with shin splints for years on end since I use to walk miles upon miles accross the concrete jungle every day for years.
As an osteopath I see a large number of people experiencing “shinsplints” due to postural issues. If the person has a posterior centre of gravity (basically, they stand with more pressure on the heal) the Tib anterior has to stay in a shortened length. Otherwise the person will just fall backwards. The real question is why the person is standing like that in the first place. The shin splint is just a symptom of other things.
Yes. Unless I am conscious of HOW I walk, the splints will re-occur. I maintain my pelvis so that the front bones, the headlights so-to-speak, are positioned downwards in the anterior position versus tilted up as in posterior. I think it relieves the pressure or tension that results in splints although I like the idea of building muscle in front of the bone (?) as well.
I've never been officially diagnosed with shin splints, but in my senior year of high-school I really nailed my shin on a metal shelf. It hurt for months even after the bruise had healed up. Not really an ambient or constant throbbing. More of just a dull ache when under stress. It eventually stopped hurting, but for unexplained reasons it can act up again every now and then. Same pain, same area (front just below my knee), same intensity under stress. It was actually just bugging me again yesterday (3 years after the initial incident), which is why it's interested to see this in my recommended.
You are really good at involving the audience with your enthusiasm and knowledge. I love it when instructors get excited about a topic they love. It's catchy! I would like to understand lots of anatomical areas such as piriformis pain and the injuries that can occur when someone falls forward, lots of force, to the ground onto an open, palm facing downward position. There are a lot of other questions I have but those are intriguing to me. Thank you for helping us understand anatomy.
The best explanation I have seen for this problem by far.. been suffering with this lately and couldn't find a decent explanation for what causes it.. thanks very much!
Had a thought. What about bones, broken/fractured and what it looks like when the bone has healed. Love the tik tok videos and these detailed videos on youtube.

I would like to see that too, both looking at the healed bone from the outside and a cross cut of the inside. Plus I was confused he could stick his pen in the bone, I thought there was stuff in there.
@@victorrojas1037 bleh, I only got the mildest kind of that when I joined the army. My peers had them bad. The difference was, I wore work boots mostly, as that way when I had to move heavy objects, I didn't need to change footwear after school. That prepared both muscle and bone for the additional mass of boots and dashing about (we just switched to sneakers for running, just to avoid stress fractures which were rampant at the time as well).
@@imzadi83fanvids7 another video worked with the same cadaver and explained that the bone was hollowed out for a different examination previously. Yellow marrow is normally there, the same stuff you'd see in a beef shank or ham shank bone.
Ima Builder hi! With a sprained ankle that means your ankle has either rolled out (eversion sprain) or in (inversion sprain). An eversion sprain is most bound to happen in most cases because our foot naturally rolls out where as in an inversion sprain, chances are you’ll need an external force to roll your ankle in. Whenever one of these two sprains happen that means that you have essentially stretched those ligaments to a point that they tear. The severity of the tear determines what type of sprain you have. In some cases, people experience high ankle sprains so that means that there’s more damage when going up the foot. The hands are feet are both highly complexed areas of the body, there are so many muscles and ligaments found in these areas that an injury to them can cause a longer rehabilitation compared to a different area of the body.
This is really interesting as someone who has chronic shin splints, because I also have ehlers danlos syndrome, which is a connective tissue disorder that causes my body to not produce enough collagen, and it doesn’t fold the collagen fibers correctly. My fascia is really tough as a result, along with many many other conditions and symptoms with every organ system, but it seems like it could be the cause of my chronic shin splints
When I joined the military, some recruits suffered from shin splints. Marching, running etc in boots or heeled dress shoes would cause it. They used to also refer to it as stress fractures.
I was first diagnosed with shin splints in 2001 & was told the best way to describe it was the muscle sheath tearing away from my bone 😮 (by a military doctor!) treatment was RICE but I’ve suffered with it ever since. Got a couple of ridges in each shin which I’ve been told could have been small stress fractures but never been xrayed. I’ve had a severe vitamin D deficiency since 2017 too so it’s interesting that that’s a possibility for SS & could possibly explain the more recent symptoms
When I was losing weight I tried jogging. it was fine but 1 night it felt like my shines shattered into glass I could barely walk and just the sensation of my dogs fur brushing my skin was excruciatingly painful. It didn't get better it got worse so I went to my doctor, he said it was shin splints and I may need physio therapy if it didn't heal by the end of month. This video makes shin splints sound like a minor discomfort, I suppose there may be different levels but take it from me it can get bad!
I did gymnastics in HS, and I was on pommel horse. A common issue with us pommel guys was getting forearm splints. It was the worst, felt like shin splints but in your forearms. With pommel horse your entire weight is on your wrists/forearms. To me the stress response makes more sense, as the bones are getting stronger to adapt to the weight/activity.
Military doctor in basic training diagnosed me with shin splints. I was 6 weeks in and hurt my knee, but….shin splints. So I did another 10 weeks including infantry training, got to my new unit, did 6 more months, then went to a real surgeon on base. Not shin splints. Total tear of my PCL. Good job doc.
Question: Could you guys pretty please do a video on what happens to your bones, muscles and heart when you have been bed ridden for a long period of time. Talking about how they all weaken over time and also some tips and tricks on safe ways to build back up afterwards?? 🙏🏼🙏🏼
new watcher here but i would love to see a video about tennis elbow, been suffering for a year now and would love to see how it happens and what goes on in there after you get it.
loved the video! have had shin splints for 7 years(was a sprinter). for me what really helped was ice, and rolling over a roller. Was to young to rest haha, but eventually it cured only when I stopped sprinting. Would love to see a video on the Knee joint, especialy regarding Meniscus(have had 4 lateral meniscus tears).
I have Metatarsal Adductus and also suffer from horrific shin splints. Tendons that are too “ short”, ligaments that are too “long “ and the bones in my feet are “ wavy “. Zig to the right, then “ zag “ to the left and then down to the toes, of which I have an “ anvil “ toe on either foot. I wasn’t diagnosed until my 50’s. The Peroneal tendon “snapped “ out of place, rolled to the top of my foot and then “ snapped “ back into place. Quite painful. I saw a foot and ankle specialist and he was very surprised that nothing had been done about this when I was a child and that I am walking flat-footed and straight ahead. ( I am far from “ flat-footed though. I have “ high “ arches ). Pain with every step I’ve ever taken but as a child I never complained because I just believed that everyone had pain when walking, jumping and playing also it was not noticeable to my parents. Ignorance was bliss because now I know why I have constant pain. Nothing to be done at my age ( much older now ) for I won’t be having bones broken, reset and then the tendon and ligament surgery needed to correct this problem. I’m just thankful I can walk, not far mind you because of the pain but walk nonetheless. Thank you for explaining this topic so well. I have a much better understanding of at least one of my symptoms. ☺️
Wearing compression stockings helps a ton in preventing and treating them, in my experience. With POTS, I never exercise without them on, or I suffer immeasurably.
Walk a half mile to a mile, then take the back end of a sharpie with maybe a little oil(sweat works too and you can have the sharpie in your pocket ready to go) and push it into the painful areas and run it up and down the shin, it will release the tension immediately…do as often as needed and it will resolve them.
I had severe shin splints in Army Basic, at AIT, in the Police Academy.....the problem with "rest" in those situations is that you cant rest. You have to pass PT or you get set back (at best) or you get canned (at worst). I just had to take the pain and pray I didn't get stress fractures.
First off, I've always been a runner. I've experienced episodes of shin points from an early age , up until about 3 years ago. What I found in my experience running was, as I ran faster, I would experience the discomfort of SP's. I contribute the problem to not being able to land my feet in a heel to toe format. Because of the fast pace, it was a more of a flat foot motion which to me put more strain and force to the shin area. As I have adjusted my speed and technique to roll the foot to a heel to toe format, I have not experienced the discomfort. Cheers, and I enjoy your channel ! 👌
This is crazy. I experienced this type of pain an hour prior to this video after playing a few hour of table tennis. I guess faith goes in strange ways
Hi, im physical therapist and i treat alot of knee and hips replacement. Can u please make a video explaining whats happening after the surgery and also whats the cause of the pain espacialy when u do the flexion. Thx alot, it will help me answer my patients questions. Thx.
It would be fascinating to see an anatomical explanation of why a cervical spinal injury causes priapism. EMTs are trained to stroke the groin of a male victim with the back of the hand as an erection is an indication of spinal injury. A related indicator is the arms above the head. Thanks
Your second theory is in my opinion the best choice for describing shin splints. I've had those in the past. Always the same way. Inactivity. Let's say you don't run or jog for awhile and you put on a few pounds. Then one day pow you try to run or jog avid your wearing a non running shoe. Bam shin splints. The area needs to warm up and slow get back into the weight that's been added. That's why the feeling dissipates after awhile. Its really common sense. Have a great day.
Will you please do a video to explain why arthritis makes muscles hurt as well as the joints? Specifically Osteoarthritis,. What can be done to fix it?
I used to get shin splints all the time running track. It usually occurred after a hard track practice . Since I did sprints , there was a lot of repetition of running with the just the front portion of my feet . I would feel sore walking for a couple of days . The pain was in the lower third of my shins in both legs simultaniously . Never just one leg at a time . I asked our family doc about it once and he told me they were hairline fractures .
Can you guys do a video of the hand/palm anatomy!!? Please!! I severed a tendon on my ring finger and no longer able to band my finger or even make a fist. Would love to understand what is happening in there!!!
I had pain, go to the doctor and he says you got shin splints keep exercising, month later I say it's like a hammer smashing me in the shins when I walk keep walking, I said ok and atleast I can't feel the rest of my body up from shin splints, he says stop walking and go to physio, physio says walk slower, I walk at 6kmh and hate walking slower so I had to walk at 5.5kmh and don't have a painful reaction but minor issue every now and than, sometimes it hurts for 45mins but than goes away and can walk at 6kmh afterwards for 60 mins afterwards, the body is amazing.
Due to shin splints, I had to give up playing recreational softball in my mid 20’s. I was in excellent physical shape but was definitely sidelined due to this condition.
Thanks for this! I have something like shin Splints but on the anterior side of my leg, almost fibula Splints with some added peroneal nerve entrapment. It's a good time all around!
My brother has gastro esophageal reflux disease and I was wondering if you can go more in depth with how it can cause muscle tension dysphonia since he got that from gerd
Used to have these running 4laps a day on high school track. Then I realized I could run on the balls of my feet instead and they went away in about a week.
Hello! I've recently discovered this channel and I really enjoy learning new things. However, I'm deaf and some of your videos don't have captions, including this one. Would it be possible for you to add captions in the near future? Thank you.
Can you explain neuropathy of the stomach nerve. Called gastroparesis ?...thanks. wisconsin. Your channel is so cool wish i had you in med school years ago.😉
I had them bad in the army but never spoke up because I didn’t wanna get blown up and do a hundred sprints. Buddy of mine in basic did complain and they ended up discharging him for shin splints. I’m like man I’m glad I didn’t say anything. I’m flat footed too and at first they weren’t gonna let me sign up but I told them I don’t have any problems. Reality is with flat feet you get splints all the time
When I played high school football, my shin splint pain was crippling. The only way i could function was to take four aspirin before practice every day. Our team trainer was an old Navy corpsman and he suggested this route because aspirin would help with the inflammation. Thankfully, it did.
I think its stress on the bone and muscles because once rested they stop however if you keep doing the activity regularly shin splints go away all together. Proper stretching as well helps.
Dude, can you show us what the criteria looks like? We can only see the head and/or hood, and being told its kind of like a horse shoe and alot bigger then what we have been told to think. I really want to see what it looks like underneath our Lady bits. Please please please.
What is the thoughts of dehydration effecting shin splints? I was surprised that it wasn’t mentioned in this video since the studying I have done on topic had dehydration as one of the leading causes. Also my own ex-physician had said the same thing.
I once cut my shins when doing box jumps and you could see the white tissue under the layer of fat tissue for about 2 months. My biology teacher was leading the workouts and he’s why I know that. I would’ve assumed it was bone.
For a week I used the foam roll and I stretched my calf 3 times a day, after 3 weeks the pain was magically gone, I guess I have to avoid long runs and stick to a medium stint
I don't feel the pain on the side like that, I feel the pain directly in front of my legs. The pain can get very intense, especially when I am walking up hill.
If done a significant amount of walking/running in my lifetime (EX: 2000+ mile hike across USA), and the most common reasons I've seen for shin splints and other similar issues is improper footwear and poor biomechanics (often exacerbated by poor footwear). Specifically with running, I often see people that heel strike get shin splints. My guess is that the leg/heel/foot is impacting the ground as the tibialis anterior muscle is contracted (heel strike), and those impact forces are acting against (pulling) the tibialis anterior. What should be happening (IMO) is a slight landing on the ball of foot (metatarsal heads), which then loads the achilles tendon and posterior muscles for proper energy storage and release. Because these people are heel striking (biomechanically wrong) there is also going to be a lot more load/stress on the bone (compression & tearing down as mentioned in the video) and tissue. This would also explain the two perceived causes as mentioned in this video. Great video btw! Subscribed. NOTE: I'm not a doctor nor do i have a degree.
There’s so many random pains in a day I just forget what I wanna question sometimes it feels like my heart is having a muscle cramp sometimes I just get sharp pain in my arms or sides sometimes I think I have colon or prostrate cancer bodies are weird
When I get shin splints from running and whatnot, I get these strange "bubbles" on the outside of my shin about exactly halfway down my outside shin. It will be one, single "bubble" of muscle it feels like on each shin. Outside of each shin that is. I thought maybe a hernia but what are odds exact same spot on each outside shin. And then I thought like idk lactic acid because it burns, but it usually goes away when I stop and chill for a bit, maybe half hour. Not sure what causes it, those little bumps that protrude out about the size of a nickel are really annoying on each shin and burn!
Can you talk about restless leg syndrome? I know its hormonal but i mean what we feel in the symptoms. I always have trouble describing it so i just end up saying its like my bones itch
What about the theory of the tibialis anterior muscle gaining size ( as in bodybuilding ) while the fascia stays the same size , and compresses the muscle. Can this cause pain and inflammation seen ( or felt ) in shin splints ?

I’m just thankful I can walk, not far mind you because of the pain but walk nonetheless. Thank you for explaining this topic so well. I have a much better understanding of at least one of my symptoms. ☺️
One of the better educational videos out there!
Wearing compression stockings helps a ton in preventing and treating them, in my experience. With POTS, I never exercise without them on, or I suffer immeasurably.
Hope you guys will cover topics on various knee injuries, what causes them, how and why. Thank you!
We are in the process of doing those videos!
Just found your channel and I'm loving it! Thanks for your clear but not bamboozelling explanations!
Walk a half mile to a mile, then take the back end of a sharpie with maybe a little oil(sweat works too and you can have the sharpie in your pocket ready to go) and push it into the painful areas and run it up and down the shin, it will release the tension immediately…do as often as needed and it will resolve them.
This video instantly teleported me back to 8th grade track and field.
I had severe shin splints in Army Basic, at AIT, in the Police Academy.....the problem with "rest" in those situations is that you cant rest. You have to pass PT or you get set back (at best) or you get canned (at worst). I just had to take the pain and pray I didn't get stress fractures.
First off, I've always been a runner. I've experienced episodes of shin points from an early age , up until about 3 years ago. What I found in my experience running was, as I ran faster, I would experience the discomfort of SP's. I contribute the problem to not being able to land my feet in a heel to toe format. Because of the fast pace, it was a more of a flat foot motion which to me put more strain and force to the shin area. As I have adjusted my speed and technique to roll the foot to a heel to toe format, I have not experienced the discomfort. Cheers, and I enjoy your channel ! 👌
Thanks for such a great explanation!❤
Absolutely loved this video. Great info and pretty engaging. You've got yourself a new subscriber.
This guy knows his stuff.
This is crazy. I experienced this type of pain an hour prior to this video after playing a few hour of table tennis. I guess faith goes in strange ways
Thanks for the info without messing around. Rare
Thanks for the info
Hi, im physical therapist and i treat alot of knee and hips replacement. Can u please make a video explaining whats happening after the surgery and also whats the cause of the pain espacialy when u do the flexion. Thx alot, it will help me answer my patients questions. Thx.
It would be fascinating to see an anatomical explanation of why a cervical spinal injury causes priapism. EMTs are trained to stroke the groin of a male victim with the back of the hand as an erection is an indication of spinal injury. A related indicator is the arms above the head. Thanks
Request!! Herniated disc! The how and why the happen! Why the hurt so much? Surgical and nonsurgical ways to repair them!
Дякую за чудове відеопояснення
Awesome video. Very helpful!
Your second theory is in my opinion the best choice for describing shin splints. I've had those in the past. Always the same way. Inactivity. Let's say you don't run or jog for awhile and you put on a few pounds. Then one day pow you try to run or jog avid your wearing a non running shoe. Bam shin splints. The area needs to warm up and slow get back into the weight that's been added. That's why the feeling dissipates after awhile. Its really common sense. Have a great day.
Will you please do a video to explain why arthritis makes muscles hurt as well as the joints? Specifically Osteoarthritis,. What can be done to fix it?
I used to get shin splints all the time running track. It usually occurred after a hard track practice .
Since I did sprints , there was a lot of repetition of running with the just the front portion of my feet . I would feel sore walking for a couple of days . The pain was in the lower third of my shins in both legs simultaniously . Never just one leg at a time . I asked our family doc about it once and he told me they were hairline fractures .
Great video Gary!
Back in the late 80's, early 90's, a lot of us Marines suffered from Shin Splints.
Same with the Air Force. I developed shin splints during tech school in 94.
All military services experienced this. I went through Army basic in late 70’s.
Great video, Thanks for the info !
We used to get it in the military when we did extreme 10 mile runs with army boots and rucksacks, like having a tooth pulled out of your shin.
Can you guys do a video of the hand/palm anatomy!!? Please!! I severed a tendon on my ring finger and no longer able to band my finger or even make a fist. Would love to understand what is happening in there!!!
Could you please talk about shoulder impingement
Love your stuff. Always clear and easy to understand. Thanks for sharing!
I had pain, go to the doctor and he says you got shin splints keep exercising, month later I say it's like a hammer smashing me in the shins when I walk keep walking, I said ok and atleast I can't feel the rest of my body up from shin splints, he says stop walking and go to physio, physio says walk slower, I walk at 6kmh and hate walking slower so I had to walk at 5.5kmh and don't have a painful reaction but minor issue every now and than, sometimes it hurts for 45mins but than goes away and can walk at 6kmh afterwards for 60 mins afterwards, the body is amazing.
Due to shin splints, I had to give up playing recreational softball in my mid 20’s. I was in excellent physical shape but was definitely sidelined due to this condition.
Thanks for this! I have something like shin Splints but on the anterior side of my leg, almost fibula Splints with some added peroneal nerve entrapment.
It's a good time all around!
My brother has gastro esophageal reflux disease and I was wondering if you can go more in depth with how it can cause muscle tension dysphonia since he got that from gerd
Used to have these running 4laps a day on high school track. Then I realized I could run on the balls of my feet instead and they went away in about a week.
Same and I needed better shoes.
For relief of shin splints you can drink more water. That is a remedy for most runners. Seems to work. Increases the fluid in your body and muscles.
Hello! I've recently discovered this channel and I really enjoy learning new things. However, I'm deaf and some of your videos don't have captions, including this one. Would it be possible for you to add captions in the near future? Thank you.
Watching this while sitting in pain from 'spin splints'... the combo is horrible! But thanks for the great details info video!
Can you explain neuropathy of the stomach nerve. Called gastroparesis ?...thanks. wisconsin. Your channel is so cool wish i had you in med school years ago.😉
Very intresting like the information
I had them bad in the army but never spoke up because I didn’t wanna get blown up and do a hundred sprints. Buddy of mine in basic did complain and they ended up discharging him for shin splints. I’m like man I’m glad I didn’t say anything. I’m flat footed too and at first they weren’t gonna let me sign up but I told them I don’t have any problems. Reality is with flat feet you get splints all the time
When I played high school football, my shin splint pain was crippling. The only way i could function was to take four aspirin before practice every day. Our team trainer was an old Navy corpsman and he suggested this route because aspirin would help with the inflammation. Thankfully, it did.
Awesome work you're doing here.
Talking about fascia, can you cover the famous "arm pump" that pro motorcycle riders suffer?
Thanks!
I think its stress on the bone and muscles because once rested they stop however if you keep doing the activity regularly shin splints go away all together. Proper stretching as well helps.
How is that specimen preserved? Freeze-dried, simply dressed Frozen or some other sort of preservation?
Love to here from you👍🏼
Dude, can you show us what the criteria looks like? We can only see the head and/or hood, and being told its kind of like a horse shoe and alot bigger then what we have been told to think. I really want to see what it looks like underneath our Lady bits. Please please please.
Every time I’ve ever had shin splints it’s always been in the upper part of my lower leg near the knee, not near the ankle
Thank you
What is the thoughts of dehydration effecting shin splints? I was surprised that it wasn’t mentioned in this video since the studying I have done on topic had dehydration as one of the leading causes. Also my own ex-physician had said the same thing.
the leading cause is heel striking
I’m curious what kind of specialists physicians are you guys ?
I once cut my shins when doing box jumps and you could see the white tissue under the layer of fat tissue for about 2 months. My biology teacher was leading the workouts and he’s why I know that. I would’ve assumed it was bone.
Plagued me for about 600 miles of the PCT.. had to bind it and support the area. No rest possible, but the did eventually go away
Can you make a video about Osgood Schlatters?
Can you PLEASE explain tennis elbow
i’ve had shin splints for years cause of ballet and i can’t get rid of it loll i just put on KT tape and hope for the best 🏃🏻♀️
cant get over the fact he used a actual cadaver for visuals
For a week I used the foam roll and I stretched my calf 3 times a day, after 3 weeks the pain was magically gone, I guess I have to avoid long runs and stick to a medium stint
that human leg do kinda be vibin tho.
I'm really curious about what causes scoliosis
I don't feel the pain on the side like that, I feel the pain directly in front of my legs. The pain can get very intense, especially when I am walking up hill.
Every video I watch throws me out. I always say "man these are some detailed models!"
Then I remember. "That's not a model. That's an ACTUAL leg."
Request - plantar fasciitis
If done a significant amount of walking/running in my lifetime (EX: 2000+ mile hike across USA), and the most common reasons I've seen for shin splints and other similar issues is improper footwear and poor biomechanics (often exacerbated by poor footwear). Specifically with running, I often see people that heel strike get shin splints. My guess is that the leg/heel/foot is impacting the ground as the tibialis anterior muscle is contracted (heel strike), and those impact forces are acting against (pulling) the tibialis anterior. What should be happening (IMO) is a slight landing on the ball of foot (metatarsal heads), which then loads the achilles tendon and posterior muscles for proper energy storage and release. Because these people are heel striking (biomechanically wrong) there is also going to be a lot more load/stress on the bone (compression & tearing down as mentioned in the video) and tissue. This would also explain the two perceived causes as mentioned in this video. Great video btw! Subscribed.
NOTE: I'm not a doctor nor do i have a degree.
There’s so many random pains in a day I just forget what I wanna question sometimes it feels like my heart is having a muscle cramp sometimes I just get sharp pain in my arms or sides sometimes I think I have colon or prostrate cancer bodies are weird
When I get shin splints from running and whatnot, I get these strange "bubbles" on the outside of my shin about exactly halfway down my outside shin. It will be one, single "bubble" of muscle it feels like on each shin. Outside of each shin that is.
I thought maybe a hernia but what are odds exact same spot on each outside shin. And then I thought like idk lactic acid because it burns, but it usually goes away when I stop and chill for a bit, maybe half hour.
Not sure what causes it, those little bumps that protrude out about the size of a nickel are really annoying on each shin and burn!
Can you talk about restless leg syndrome? I know its hormonal but i mean what we feel in the symptoms. I always have trouble describing it so i just end up saying its like my bones itch
What about the theory of the tibialis anterior muscle gaining size ( as in bodybuilding ) while the fascia stays the same size , and compresses the muscle. Can this cause pain and inflammation seen ( or felt ) in shin splints ?
I usually just thump the painfully area gently with the heel of my other foot. Sometimes it's less gentle.
"In anatomy, if it's in a different place, we give it a new name" .... but they're both called kidneys!! 😁
Yo!! I was not expecting a cadaver leg and dead bodies in the background!! I suggest maybe a disclaimer for the squeamish, like me 😔
How much do you pay for cadavers and where do you get them?
Used to get them all the time when i used to mountain bike
