Are these the dreaded "shin splints"?!


Question: Are these the dreaded "shin splints"!?
I'm a very lean build (9% bf) and have played various sports my whole life (soccer, hockey, baseball, you name it!.!.!.) and have recently just got into running!. When I do so however, after not a very long run at all, I get aching pain in my calf and shin area!. My hamstrings are fine and overall I don't feel very tired at all but this pain forces me to stop prematurely!. I'm wondering if these are symptoms of shin splints, and if anyone recommends a remedy!.!.!.I realize this also may be caused by a poor running style, but I can't see it being bad considering I've played sports my whole life!.!.!.Any info would be greatly appreciated!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When you run, do you run on a tough surface!? And you might want to look into better running shoes (if you don't run on a hard surface)Www@Answer-Health@Com
