What Are Shin Splints? 

Not certain about the points made but ,if anyone else needs to find out about get rid of shin splints forever try Mackorny Run Fast Blueprint ( search on google )? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for getting rid of shin splints minus the headache. Ive heard some great things about it and my co-worker got amazing results with it.

I'm fighting with shin splints for 5 months now, after I first experienced it I rested for 1 month then started running again bt after 2 weeks the pain came back so I rested 2 months and started running again but after 2 weeks of easy short runs now I feel it again. What else should I try? In the meantime I was cycling so I didn't really rest for 2 months but low impact rest. I would really appreciate your advice. Thanks and thanks for all the good video's!

My calf is also bothering me, I try to stretch it as much as I can thought the day

@@ciumas12 I've been feeling it for a while and i started doing the same things you did like rest,... , and I realised that after that period I shouldn't go and run the same distances and at the same speed as well so what I'm doing until now gradually increases the speed and distances, and the days that I run as well

@@ciumas12 I use to run 4 days a week right at the beginning of the the year but when I started felling it I tried to rest for 2 weeks, it didn't work out, so I rested for a month and since that I've increasing the speed , distances and the days I run So now I run 8 km 3 days a week That turned out to be more efficient And I'm planning to stay at these amount of days but only increase the speed and distance

Grace Good yeah!!!!

are those bad for you because sometime when I move my neck to fast I get a little slit in there like the middle right side of my neck

It is an awesome exclusive guide for getting rid of shin splints minus the headache. Ive heard some super things about it and my colleague got excellent results with it.

When I feel those muscles getting stressed, I find that it is my running posture. I have my shoulders too high. For me, consciously relaxing and lowering my shoulders when running helps a lot. Get a good stretch in too.

What are toe taps?

@@eugenetheg4724 Basically it's flexing your foot up and down. You flex your foot upward all the way and then flex it down. If your sitting down you would be tapping your toe like you're keeping a beat to a song.

I suspect with this vid I've hit upon why the lower front of my right lower leg has a dull ache. I've just gone thro 5 weeks of 'great toe' joint inflammation (unable to walk) so it's good to drop on a reason for this latest problem Thanks.

@@thomasphilyaw8593 Thanks for the heads up. I thought it was just like like a muscle or something that is sore. But no it's something much more.. dangerous... I guess? Anyways thanks

Without being an anatomy expert myself I can at least corroborate with my experience. When I was in track in high school, none of the coaches except one knew anything about weight training. Because there wasn't a lot of oversight, I did basic machine exercises, and specifically calf raises. I had shin splints that wouldn't quit, and I quit track after 10th grade. Now that I do compound lifts, 22 years later, I can see a difference, where there is muscle all the way around the lower leg, not just the calf. Shin splints seem to have gone away.

do you have bumps along the ridge of your tibia?

@@jacobrohr5903 for me I do

my dream :D

Look ma, I'm on tv!

It usually happens close to eating because a lot of blood and energy is focused on digestion. A stitch happens I believe due to lactic acid build up- this is when the blood doesn’t have enough oxygen to keep up with demand- you make energy via anaerobic respiration (without oxygen) but that creates lactic acid which hurts, hence the stitch. Once your body takes more deeps breaths and catches up you can repay the “oxygen debt” and get rid of the acid.

@Luke yeet actually there isn't a definitive answer so you can't really be correcting people

That’s a terrible feeling I use to get it occasionally when I ran track

This makes me realize where the saying "I was in stitches" after laughing comes from.

yeetus that fetus irritation of your diaphragm

Yeah please, my ankles Crack everytime I walk and recently my jaw Cracks too

knuckle cracking isn’t bad and it’s basically popping air bubbles between your joints

this is a good idea

Basically little air bubbles in the joints are popping when you do this. How these bubbles are made I do believe a chemical reaction in the some compounds in the joints themselves. The bubbles should reappear after about twenty or so minutes. Correct me if I'm wrong about this.

Meister Master thank you, I know that, but how does it exactly works?, and most important: is is bad for you? I always crack my knuckles, kneecaps, elbow, toes, wrist, neck and more.

It's no wonder that I've been dealing with shin splints for years on end since I use to walk miles upon miles accross the concrete jungle every day for years.

Thank you! That helped me a lot.

Good info.makes sense.thanks.👍🏽

I also do lots of biking before since 2016 until this 2021(i had gall bladder surgery and stopped doing heavy activities for almost a whole year). January 2022 i got engaged into basketball, playing every week only until now August, i get to play every other 2 days. I even do lots of jogging to strengthen my leg muscles but now i have this shin splints. I cant even last long playing basketball for about 2 months now. Tried to rest for a whole week and the pain comes back after about 5 mins of playing basketball. May i know what "weight lifting" you are referring to? Is it the weight lifting in standing position? Because i do some weight lifting too but im using a weight lifting bench

Yes. Unless I am conscious of HOW I walk, the splints will re-occur. I maintain my pelvis so that the front bones, the headlights so-to-speak, are positioned downwards in the anterior position versus tilted up as in posterior. I think it relieves the pressure or tension that results in splints although I like the idea of building muscle in front of the bone (?) as well.

Marisa Madole FYI those are real human body parts. They are frozen and shipped to university medical schools.

NS R frozen? Doubtful. Embalmed for sure.

Marisa Madole I’m pretty sure the proteins in your calf and the fibers contract sometimes and stay in that position, overlapping. The reason why they hurt is because the fibers are still contracting while overlapping. We still have no idea why *exactly* this happens, though. I graduated college a year ago with a bachelor degree in anatomy and medicine.

NS R not particularly frozen, but embalmed and preserved, just not at a cold temperature.

All I know is it's when your calf muscle constricts tight due to dehydration, stress or lack of potassium. I had a massive one wake me up at 3 am and they are very painful

Weird

Serotonin 5ht3 receptors in the gut, and/or a blood chemoreceptor zone in the medulla oblongata in the brainstem, send signals to a part of your brainstem literally called the "vomit center" (also in the medulla oblongata) which triggers the heaving that makes you vomit.

theres a video of this on RU-vid. theres videos of pretty much anything you can think of

If there was any significant anatomy involved, he might...

Ive got cyclic vomiting syndrome it sucks but the vomit center thing is right

Please note, his patients are all dead.

😂

😂you don’t just become a doctor after knowing, not even mastering, one or a few terms

Yes, collectively "we all" make "a doctor".

We'll see if we can get a video out soon! Thank you for the kind words!

@@theanatomylab please as a person with it. Its not fun but.... Gel insoles really help!

Carina Busegeanu Had this...very painful Am interested in it too.

@@toriladybird511 The problem with gel insoles, while they do provide a welcomed relief, is that they're not really helping you deal with the root cause. I've had it twice, and even rest or extra padding only gave temporary relief, and then it would get inflamed again if I had a long streak of many workdays in a row and had to be on my feet a lot. What ended up really helping, and helps every time I feel it starting again, is correct ways of stretching, mobility exercises and some basic muscle strengthening. Once you strengthen the supporting tissues and work on your muscle endurance, then combine that with rehabilitating fascia massage using for example a ball under your foot, and stretch out our hip flexors as well, it will greatly ease the tension of the fascia and gives it time to heal the inflammation. Once the inflammation goes down, you can engage in slightly more intense stretching routines for the soles of your feet - and that will offer you lasting results. So, so soooo many of our issues come from us simply being way too stiff and not using your structure correctly. Now, this might not be the solution for every case of plantar fasciitis.. I don't know.. But it really helped me a lot and quickly, and it certainly wouldn't hurt to try. You'll have a better functioning body overall, none the less.

Years ago, as a young adult, I was waitressing wearing really cheap shoes and my arches fell and I got shin splints! I helped myself by wrapping up my arch real tight with an ace bandage and was able to pull my arches up (not to where they were, but no longer flat!) and it also relieved the shin splints! You all are awesome!

Lol I hate when it happens

Similar story but after boot camp, my Staff Sargeant was a runner, he would take us on some painful runs to say the least, ended up with stress fractures from the running and marching. It was not fun lol. Till this day I hate running with a passion.

I Had Them During Basic , They Hurt So Bad , But I Never Fell Out Of Any Roadmarch, Or Run, Only Because I Didn't Want To Get Recycled, Later In Permanent Party I Had Stress Fractures In Both Shins Cause Of All The Heavy Training We Were Doing, Had A Cast Put On One Leg Cause It Cracked Half Way , Glad I Made It Through.

@@rolandohernandez36 You could have simply gotten a little ol' temporary profile in basic and not worry about being recycled...depends on what your DS was like... mine wanted all of us to succeed, and only 1 temp profile was accepted, any other would cause suspicion of malingering... that temporary profile kept me from having a more serious injury later on... even got my run time in basic/AIT (OSUT) down from 8min+/mile at the start to just over 6min/mile by our last FTX...

Especially when the DI says "KEEP RUNNING"!

The only thing you can really do about them is tough them out. I got shin splints at Ft. Benning. I quickly learned, it only hurt after running, when I stopped running. If that's not motivation, what is?

@@smittywerbenjaegermanjense7376 That’s completely not true, you can’t just “tough it out”. As states in the video it’s a stress reaction that if it gets worse becomes a stress fracture, that’s cracks in the bone. No amount of toughing it out will allow that to heal. Proper rest is needed to allow the damage to heal and then once back to training you need to train slowly to condition the area and as it strengthens you can train more often and for longer.

@@45Camster Everything can be toughed out in the infantry. H2O, fresh socks and paracetamol have been combat proven means of stopping sprained ankles, spinal injuries and gunshot wounds.

I'm also a dancer prone to shin splints, something that really helps mine is compression! When I feel them coming on I'll wrap the areas decently tightly - Not so tight as to cut off circulation or be super uncomfortable - before class and that support helps a buuuunch. Someone I know started to get shin splints and she slept in long compression socks and that helped hers heal up quicker but I never did that. Hope this helps!

@@buckplug2423 This is why every army/marine basic training course has people dropping out with stress fractures. What is needed is Army PT instructors who know what they are doing and who are allowed to rest injured candidates,

I suddenly got shin splints! Lol

I have hyperthyroidism and would also love a thyroid video! Edit: I actually found out I also have Hashimotos Thyroiditis

@@waywardgoddess7219 got Grave's here, know what mine looks like in ultrasound and when, ahem, internally illuminated with I-131. Although, I suspect some things have changed, as I've began experiencing moderate weight gain, suggesting a possible shift to Hashimoto's. We'll see once COVID risks are lower, as I'm not really interested in bringing something home that'll kill my wife.

what running shoes did you end up investing in? curious as I haven’t been able to find any comfortable ones!

great question!

Bl00dboy pretty sure they scream very loudly and flex their pecs. Then voila milk.

Sphincter of Feces lololol

You graze in a pasture.

ivannaattention that’s not what i’m asking,,, i’m asking him to explain it

Ima Builder hi! With a sprained ankle that means your ankle has either rolled out (eversion sprain) or in (inversion sprain). An eversion sprain is most bound to happen in most cases because our foot naturally rolls out where as in an inversion sprain, chances are you’ll need an external force to roll your ankle in. Whenever one of these two sprains happen that means that you have essentially stretched those ligaments to a point that they tear. The severity of the tear determines what type of sprain you have. In some cases, people experience high ankle sprains so that means that there’s more damage when going up the foot. The hands are feet are both highly complexed areas of the body, there are so many muscles and ligaments found in these areas that an injury to them can cause a longer rehabilitation compared to a different area of the body.

As someone who's torn their ACL and Meniscus I couldn't bare to watch that.

Yes please! I recently tore both (meniscus and acl) and would be really interested in seeing the details of what happened

The way you've worded that is so demanding and rude.

hi everyone ,if anyone else wants to learn about how to strengthen your shins try Mackorny Run Fast Blueprint (just google it )? It is a good one off product for getting rid of shin splints without the hard work. Ive heard some decent things about it and my m8 got amazing results with it.

I would like to see that too, both looking at the healed bone from the outside and a cross cut of the inside. Plus I was confused he could stick his pen in the bone, I thought there was stuff in there.

@@victorrojas1037 bleh, I only got the mildest kind of that when I joined the army. My peers had them bad. The difference was, I wore work boots mostly, as that way when I had to move heavy objects, I didn't need to change footwear after school. That prepared both muscle and bone for the additional mass of boots and dashing about (we just switched to sneakers for running, just to avoid stress fractures which were rampant at the time as well).

@@imzadi83fanvids7 another video worked with the same cadaver and explained that the bone was hollowed out for a different examination previously. Yellow marrow is normally there, the same stuff you'd see in a beef shank or ham shank bone.

Get orthotic in your shoes for more support to help lessen/ relieve pain.

I'll buy that. Only time I got them was in HS and they made us run on a track.

Yeah. We usually run on grass. A lot softer

Lol I just walk around my house and got shin splints. But i have a neurodisease and my body is in exhaustion mode constantly.

wow, gymnastics in high school? that's awesome. I wish I had that. but anyways what did you guys do to fix your forearm splints? I also have it

I mean... I watched a dudes shin have a movable chunk and they called it a stress fracture. But that was a while back now....

Yeah man I was like wtf 😳🧐

It's called cadaver

Donated, not stolen.

Yet, most people don't mind holding a chicken drumstick and eating it.

@@MedEighty A truly titillating observation sir 🕵🏿‍♂️

There’s nothing simple about anatomy tbh

Hallee Campanile same with mine! I brought better shoes and it’s helped a lot

@@alishasmith6645 I lost weight in addition....boy do differences help at times. I heard that when you run or walk your pain in your legs are truly dependent upon gait and foot position...aka how you walk. I'm pigeon footed and it sucks. Lol.

@Scumfuck McDoucheface it's all in my head huh? If you lived a day in my life you would think twice about that.

@Scumfuck McDoucheface not exactly funny when I have been classed as disabled under 30 with a young child to care for. I've had to give up my job as a community carer all because I struggle to walk or stand up straight.

@@patriciasmith5796 I also have fibromyalgia and its definitely REAL! your an asshole and need to educate yourself!

@BrackynMor Wow. Fibro person here too

I'm convinced that fibromyalgia is a physical disease. I'm bipolar and I have noticed that when I have periods of depression, I have more pain in my body, but _never_ to the levels that fibro patients have. And my pain tolerance fluctuate with my moods, which isn't the case with fibro.

That's funny.

🤣Chi-ken!

🤣

I'll get right on that!

Institute of Human Anatomy you guys are the coolest! 😊

That's great to hear!

I read the comments just to see if anyone else felt same.

Reminds me of Dexter's Lab when dee dee bites him

Have you gotten another doctor to look at it?

@@themoon2232 Of course but the results were the same

L asian

sounds like you’re a typical heel striker

when you study medicine you get used to it, it dosent even phase me anymore...

MrHazzard12345 so.. that’s a real leg?

@@CodyBosch Yeah it is a real human leg

I think we can do that!
