Message: [QUOTE="michigan, post: 275453, member: 22182"] Mine were supposedly caused by overpronation (foot rolling inward). The first fix was a pair of $600 custom orthotics and physical therapy. I put these orthotics into an expensive pair of running shoes and the shoes were stolen three months later. My next solution (2nd pair of orthotics was out of the question) was to run less. This worked well too. Are you running in motion control shoes? A proper shoes might help. If you go to a good running store (not a regular sports store) they might be able to recommend a shoe that is specific to your needs. That might do the trick. Good luck. ps- I've heard (and I'm not sure if its true) that shin splints can eventually lead to stress fractures in the lower leg. [/QUOTE]
