Sounds like sore calf muscles, not shin splints. Shin splints hurt the front of the shin (the bone) not the back (the muscle).
Treatment; less footy, more study
good luck,

You wouldn't ask the doctor how to improve your bench press, would you? So why are you asking us lifters a medical question?
If you have time to post on here and await a response, you have time to go to the quack or physio.
So go.
Certainly. But we are still not experts. A doctor who deals with people who injure themselves doing physical exercise would also have some sort of experience/knowledge about physical training. Still, you would not ask a GP to write a workout programme for you.well i would assume people involved in fitness would have some sort of experience/know about injuries and treatment,
Nothing worthwhile comes without some effort and patience. That includes competent medical advice.plus i spent 5 mins writing my post and forgot about it untill now compared to spending at least an hour at the doctors sitting next to some snotty nose picking kid

Reverse calf raises
Not true..
Post midial stress syndrome a lot of the time caused when the foot overpronates or oversupinates..and that is pulling on the muscle.
I've got it really bad, I've had sore inner calves near the shin for 8 months, I was overseas till 3 months ago and didn't have insurance to cover it. Now I'm back the phsyio/doctor thinks it's shin splints, told me to get some orthotics ( I had... but I never wore them) and to let it heal. If it doesn't I have to go back for an ultra sound.
Massages can help too. I hate shin splints.
