Pain in right shin when exercising
I've been getting back into the exercise routine lately. I've been running on the treadmill and lifting 3-4 times per week. However, when I'm on the treadmill, regardless of if I'm running or walking, after about 5 minutes my right shin feels like it's going to explode.
It's really preventing me from doing the 2.5 miles I want every time. I stretch myself out pretty well before running. Does anyone have any tips to eliminate this pain? |

It's not in the bone, but more towards the right side in the muscle.
I've never had shin splints so I'm not sure what that feels like.

walk on the balls of your feet. heavy on the toe raises 3 sets of 100. The gastrocnemius is one of the hardest muscles to develop.

Do you notice any odd wear patterns on your shoes?
I had a similar problem, which was diagnosed as shin splints due to the way my foot landed. Supination, pronation or something like that. A slip-in orthotic did the trick for me. |

Cramp, stretch your shins several times per day, drink more water.

Make sure your insoles(sp?) are still good. Sometimes an insole with an arch helps too.
