When a patient visiting Omaha Chiropractor Clinic has shin splints, there are no obvious symptoms; they simply feel pain in the front or back of the lower leg. There is no clear definition of shin splints and many illnesses such as tendonitis, periostitis, muscle strain and interosseous membrane strain may bring about this condition.
There are basically two types of shin splints in Omaha: 1. Anterior shin splints – involves muscles in the front of the leg that are used for shock absorption. When they are weak or placed under increased demand as in walking or running on hard surfaces or when the shoe has no shock absorbing qualities, the force is transmitted to the shin bone resulting in a shin splint. 2. Posterior shin splints – involves muscles in the back of the leg. These muscles act as ankle stabilizers and appear to be overstrained when the patient over pronates.
When shin splints are present, the pain is most commonly felt at the middle to the lower third of the shin bone. Stress fracture is an important differential for shin splints, according to Dr Jeffrey Clark DC. But x-ray images of shin splints are generally normal.
Your chiropractor, of NE, will perform a thorough history and examination including orthopaedic, neurological testing and diagnostic radiography to determine the extent of you shin splints. Then they will develop a specific plan of management tailored to your case.
