Tendoitis/ShinSplint: Hello, This sounds like muscle fatigue, inflammation, and lactic acid build up as a result of shin splints. The anterior tibia muscle is stressed and pulls of the tibia. In addition to symptom control with R.I.C.E., its important to obtain the cause, usually bio mechanical in nature, think muscular weakness/imbalance.
