How do I make my shins stop hurting ASAP?!
Question: How do I make my shins stop hurting ASAP.?
I enrolled in a navy seal bootcamp team (it's not really for the navy, just ran by a guy who used to be a navy seal) and it is intense. I paid $250 for the first 2 weeks which has to be completed to graduate and actually join the class. Well I have 2 days left and my shins are killing me!! They only hurt when I run or go up and down steps, so I don't think it's shin splints. I have to finish this class. What can I do to stop the pain.? I am buying new shoes today and someone else told me to use Ben gay. Any suggestions.? I paid a lot of money for this and I must finish!Health Question & Answer
Answers:
Sounds like you do have shin splints. And the only way to get rid of them is to stop doing the exercise that seems to cause the pain. But considering that I am not a Dr. I would say that you need to be seen by a Dr. ASAP! If you continue the exercise it could cause you much more complications that will keep you from taking the real class you want to take and problems that will last for a very long time.
