I have an idea! I recently rolled my ankle. The tendon on the outside of my ankle is now pulled. If I point my toe inward, this muscle will spasm, sending electric shocks through that area. I rolled it three weeks ago and it’s still painful if I move incorrectly. I am an Irish dancer and I need my full range of motion. I wore a compression sock under my costume for two shows at St. Patrick’s Day. Are there any exercises that might help with healing? I hope you are having a great spring!
I went into a bike accident couple of months ago fell on my knee and tibialis anterior muscle region on right leg since then almost minor injuries got healed but I'm still feeling numbness, pinching, tingling sensation when touched or if applied pressure on the tibialis muscle region. How can i treat the injury?
ON GOD!!! im having this pain from a week and i dont know what people call it and luckily and very very randomly this video having that thumbnail popped up and now im relieved!! Thanks!

Hi, just wanted to say thankyou. I'm in the military and have suffered from shin splints for over 6 months - physio has been giving very generalised advice. I did this, and my shin splints are now minimal (I can walk without painful throbbing). Life changing - thankyou!
@@ujjwalkhadkaofficial I don’t get shin splints anymore. I’ve been doing heaps of calf raises and tibia strengthening stuff. My calves were really tight too, so I recommend getting a remedial massage if you can or just use a massage ball. Use the bike heaps instead of running or the rower. I also bought new runners and they’ve helped a lot. It’s so painful, I don’t wish it upon anyone
@@ashleighbuchanan9701 Can you please suggest some exercise that you did? I just started doing exercises mentioned in this video; would this help? please share how you improved it.
How did it go with scraping after 8 months? I just started scrapping with spoon and firstly warming that area following instructions, and now I got even bigger inflamation, so contra effect. Thanks@@gonzalovenegasgomez349
Just WOW! I've had swelling and pain in my knee and lower leg for months. My doctor has performed test after test, sonograms, etc. and can't figure it out. This is the absolute first time I've felt any relief since it's started. Thank you! I stumbled across you on accident but I'm so grateful.
Love how he explains every step so clearly and you can see what he is explaining too. With our second guessing. A good reminder of how one can correct different muscle groups with different levels of intensity.😃 12:2512:25
A few days ago I was suffering from shin pain. At the end of the interval training I couldn't stand up because of how much my shins hurt. I did these exercises for three days in a row with a fairly high intensity, especially the muscle scraping. It took away all my pain completely. Thank you very much for everything❤
It did all the magic! I felt immediate effect after first time (when I could clearly feel „swollen” tissue along the bone, and was not afraid to press it, push it and massage). It did come back in the following 4-5 days BUT much ligher each time. I did not quit my running (I am not an athlete but I need to loose weight and 30 min runs are my key excersice). Repeating the procedure of massaging and stretching + an antiinflammation cream from a pharmacy reduced the the pain and touch sensitivity by 90% in just 4-5 days! I was not that consistent further on - because I honestly felt no need to - and today, after around 10-14 days, I feel completely recovered and feel 0 pain during and after my runs. THANK YOU!!!
Best physiotherapist on YT.... Your vids have always worked for me so far, including this one.... Huge relief in my shin splints.... And I've needed some good strengthening exercises
This is a wonderful video. It not only relieved my shin splints in about 10 minutes, but Dr. Rowe gave me easy, quick exercises to keep this from happening again. Everything he showed can be easily done with no equipment other than a tennis ball. I so appreciate this video. Thank you.
I’m excited to make this a daily routine. I’m a runner who hasn’t been running much due to splints I developed from trying a new shoe after a decade+ of running splint free. It’s super frustrating to be sidelined. Thanks
I have them on both legs and keep running. Here are some things that help before /after workout 1) quad based leg exercises (no weight, trying to activate as many muscles as possible 2)very high knee running technique 3) running mostly on soft surfaces These things help before / after main set, in which I'll have the most pain (in between intervals) next day I can finish the workout with low level of pain
Im a school teacher and having pain on the bones. I noticed the pain when i was soing action songs with my kids in class. Glad i found your video Doctor. Have started exercises. Pains a lot when scrapping. Will continue though
Thank you for this! My kids and I belong to the same Irish Dance company. My oldest gets shin splints all the time. My youngest has not had the experience just yet. I’ll show them both these techniques to see if they help. Have a great week!
So helpful! My shin pain lessened with just the massage! I asked my Dr what to do and he said exercise it. No specifics. Thank you for the free directions!!!!
I came in here to criticise it saying "How to Fix Shin Splints in 30 SECONDS" and haha the video is 12:24 mins long. But honestly its very nice I did the muscle scraping and its doing the job. Thank you doctor.
Thank you I went to a Physical Therapist for my knee. My Doctor wasn’t understanding it was from my knee down through the Tibialis anterior muscle to my outer ankle. Now I can tell my PT now I know what is happening. Thank you for your video
I’m in my late 30s and play soccer twice a week. Today I cane back with so much shin splints pain. I tried your exercises and followed the spoon method and the pain from 90% to 5%. I will follow your recommendations for stronger shins so I get better at my games. Much appreciated.
I also started to play soccer once a week(after 8 yeras of not playing). I have shin splints too, first 2-3 weeks I could run and spirint but now i can’t sprint my legs dont let me run. How did it go so far for you? I think Im gonna see a doctor, Im worried if it is stress fracture
@@m10ozil71 add more shin exercises to your training. Warm up your shin mussels before playing. Use cold pads when you get home. Use massage gun to shape your shins and calfs. Trust the process. I became very fast and can run like in my 20s.
I was given 100 tablet bottle of aspirin and set oof crutches. After two days, I threw them both over a fence and solved the issue with help of my sensei.
im a cleaner and my job involves walking non stop for hours and ive developed super uncomfortable shin splints, but the spoon scraping has helped tons im so glad to feel some relief, thank you so much !!
I have been training to run for marathon and being a beginner, I ignored the pain in lower leg for weeks and pushed myself to run and later when I felt I couldn’t run, I started to research about and got to know it is shin splints. Found your video useful. I currently have lump in the lower leg exactly where you had shown in the video. Started following your instructions on this since yesterday. I think the lump has reduced …will continue to do the exercises for next 2 days. Hope it is not stress fracture.
@@Awonderchild Follow the instructions given in the video. Stretches, Oil massage, Strengthening and applying cold packs reduces the lump in one week to 10 days. For me it took 10 days. Thought I am cured, I have included the stretches and strengthening exercises given in the video as part of my daily schedule. Also reduced the intensity of my running speed.... Doing more easy runs relaxingly.
@@Awonderchild Same here. I did the scraping everyday until the pain is fully gone or lump is almost gone. Then I did the strengthening for a week.. I didnt go for run atleast for next 10 days.. waited for recovery. When I started running again, I also got a sense of feel that Shin Splints may back again. I was advised to do easy runs...So gonna start to run from tomorrow..will let you after a week. Pain is no more now.
Did it with a bic lighter instead of the spoon and it worked ✅ glad i came across this video, had these pains for sometime now especially after workouts.
I was turning my eyes when i saw this. Sure, its that easy... After 5 days with severe pain and hardly being able to walk at all, I'll take massage oil and a spoon and there we go. BUT IT WORKED! WORKED LILE A CHARM! DID IT NOW ,3 TIMES AND THE PAIN IS GONE. THANKS! THANKS AND AGAIN - THANKS! 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for this video. I didn’t realize how tight my muscles around my tibia were until I started doing the massage. Can you do a video on massaging your intestine for constipation.
Thank you, it all started like shin splint for me and then became stress fracture at exactly where you point out, once it becomes stress fracture at that place, gets really painful and tougher to heal and takes years of rest, so be careful with shin splints
Gosh i hope this isn't rude or offensive but i just have to say not only do i enjoy his videos and what they teach but i am in love. He is so darn handsome. He seems to have an amazing personality. Just a real dream boat. With respect.
I am too old to run. I was getting pain especially whilst sitting and after walking but after following your suggestions there is an improvement whilst sitting. I will try your back exercises as well. I think that it all started after getting incredibly painful lower back spasms which of themselves only lasted half a minute at most, for days I could not sit at all, but months after have left me with these leg and left hip pain.Thank you for all that you do.
Great video! I'm not positive, but I think my shin splint in my left tibia just went away after massaging and doing the spoon technique! You're awesome!
I want to say thank you for making this video with the most comprehensive and easy-to-follow steps to help ease shin splints and to ultimately deal with the problem by strengthening those related muscles. Been suffering from shin splints for two weeks and just followed your method of scraping and stretching - pain was gone and I could feel the calf muscles finally loosening up!!! I have heard of how scarring of muscle tissues could lead to adhesions that could contribute to tibialis syndrome, so I guess the scraping helps ease the adhesions of the slightly inflamed scarred tissues to the bone(?) Anyway, it works!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Great tutorial! He shows several different methods on how to eliminate or reduce your shin splints. Hopefully this will work for everyone because shin splints are very painful and they hamper your exercise schedule. I don't know why every gym does not have a tibia exercise machine. It's one of the most important exercises for your lower legs and creates stability with your calf muscles. Perhaps a gym management does not know or understand how important of an exercise machine that is because at one gym called Equinox I saw them remove it from the floor! I canceled my room membership following that.
Thanks a lot for the scraping procedure..i was suffering with a shin splint for weeks having tried all methods but this video came in as a blessing..I can now feel some relief😊
thank you so much for the comprehensive video. Helped me really get off the shin pains. Can you please do a video on rotator cuff impingement and strengthening ? thanks a lot...
Thx for this detailed video hope it helps my son who's been having issues for the past weeks it really gets in the way of him playing sports which he loves
This is a VERY HELPFUL video. I have my discomfort on the outside of the bone..I gently push the outside going down and I feel the soreness. In terms of the spoon, using the rounded end of the spoon works better. I think the tip of my spoon - the way you are using it - is too think and does not feel good. Can I continue to use the other end? Thanks again for the helpful video.
So I used to have shin splints all the time. I've since corrected my form to avoid heal striking and my calves absorb most of the impact. When I recently felt shin splints coming on, I simply foam rolled my calves thoroughly and held a good Soleus stretch until the tension released. All that deep tension is what is pulling tight on the nerves in the shin. So go to the root cause First which is the deep tension in the calves, and then most of the time I don't even need to fool around with massaging around the shin.
I’ve been struggling with shin pain for over a year and nothing has been working. What does a routine look like of scraping, strength and stretching? Ie how many days a week, what order etc
Great content! You’ve helped inform me more than my local doctor! You mentioned if there is pain on top of the bone, it could be a stress fracture….what if X-rays don’t show anything? I’ve taken a month from soccer & running and pain continues to come back. Any help? Thank you!
Great video. Thanks! Do shin splints occur on the opposite side (outside shin) too? I have discomfort on the exact opposite side youre spoon scraping. Thanks again.
Is it advisable to do "step downs?" When I plant my left foot and lower my right foot forward to the next step down, I feel pain in the upper shin of my left leg... almost up to my knee joint but on my shin. I also feel it when I warm up for running, but then it goes away. Your advice seems to be that we should target the pain, so would you recommend a few sets of "step downs" to strengthen those muscles?
I do CrossFit 6 times a week. On the days we run on row, my shins are on fire! Its gottne bad ober the last few months. Im going to add this to my stretching routine.
It sure looks like you give really good problem solving exercises. This is my second video today (first day with you), I willl now spend some time exploring. Thank you.

Glad it’s helping you!
So I used to have shin splints all the time. I've since corrected my form to avoid heal striking and my calves absorb most of the impact. When I recently felt shin splints coming on, I simply foam rolled my calves thoroughly and held a good Soleus stretch until the tension released. All that deep tension is what is pulling tight on the nerves in the shin. So go to the root cause First which is the deep tension in the calves, and then most of the time I don't even need to fool around with massaging around the shin.
Thanks for sharing us this important thing

I remember the Navy's solution for shin splints. Put your pack on and keep marching.🤣

Hi Doc thanks for this video. I think my pain is getting worse to be a stress fracture, what type of doctor do I need to see? A physiotherapist?
Excellent! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
I’ve been struggling with shin pain for over a year and nothing has been working. What does a routine look like of scraping, strength and stretching? Ie how many days a week, what order etc
Great content! You’ve helped inform me more than my local doctor!
You mentioned if there is pain on top of the bone, it could be a stress fracture….what if X-rays don’t show anything?
I’ve taken a month from soccer & running and pain continues to come back. Any help?
Thank you!
Great video. Thanks!
Do shin splints occur on the opposite side (outside shin) too? I have discomfort on the exact opposite side youre spoon scraping. Thanks again.
Plz make a video about how to cure plantar fasciitis. Thanks!

It's really helpful thanks bro ❤
Is it advisable to do "step downs?" When I plant my left foot and lower my right foot forward to the next step down, I feel pain in the upper shin of my left leg... almost up to my knee joint but on my shin. I also feel it when I warm up for running, but then it goes away. Your advice seems to be that we should target the pain, so would you recommend a few sets of "step downs" to strengthen those muscles?
Thank you so much for this video!!
You have helped me so much.
Glad the exercises are helping you, and thanks for watching!
I do CrossFit 6 times a week. On the days we run on row, my shins are on fire! Its gottne bad ober the last few months. Im going to add this to my stretching routine.
Dear Doc, please could you tell me if scraping can cause hematomas? Am I pushed too much? Thx in advance!
It sure looks like you give really good problem solving exercises. This is my second video today (first day with you), I willl now spend some time exploring. Thank you.
