my shins kill! what can i do??

I know how you feel. I got them when I was training for a show. I never layed off cuz I couldn't. I would put on long socks and put ice in a baggie and put them in my socks and ice my shins. I would rub them with the ice also. Don't keep it on too long. 5 minutes tops twice a day if you can.

Don't run or walk. Give them time to heal.

I first got shin splints a few years back which really messed up my exercise routine, anyways..... What really helped my pain cool down was - take a paper cup fill it with water freeze it over night then peel back the cup as it melts while you rub it up & down your shin! Try it ... tell me how it works for you!
