Shin splints, or medial tibial stress syndrome, refer to pain along the shinbone caused by inflammation of the muscles, tendons, and bone tissue. Typically occurring during physical activity, especially running or high-impact sports, shin splints can result from overuse or improper footwear.

Products commonly used to treat shin splints include compression sleeves or wraps that provide targeted support and help reduce inflammation. In addition, specialized insoles or orthotic inserts designed to provide better shock absorption and support during physical activities can be effective in managing and preventing shin splints.
