Shin splints due to running and soccer

2018-03-29 18:51:36
I get shin splints after every football game... I do stretching pre and post game , icing also but no result. All other teammates don't get such problems. I did take 2 months rest too , but the pain came again after 3 4 games. I wear custom orthotics insole cause of flat feet. Please suggest something.

Hi You may be doing general stretching,but key muscle is soleus, situated behind knee .Strech calf ,soleus muscles  both  and strengthen dorsifexors of foot ,all hip and knee muscle .Ask your physio for dry needling and taping.Your muscles are getting fatigue by playing in  wrong form. Get a good physio and get helped.
