Calf Support Brace Shin Splint Support for Lower Leg Compression Wrap Adjustable

What Are Shin Splints? Shin splints, also called medial stress syndrome, refers to pain felt along the sides of the shin bones after physical activity. Inflammation of the tendons, bones, and muscles around the shin bone area is at the core of the problem. This can happen when you start a new workout routine or begin running for the first time. Shin splints often feel like a dull soreness or ache. Occasionally, swelling may also appear. Calf pain also commonly accompanies shin splints. Why? Both of these issues occur from doing too much, too soon, or from overtraining. The calf muscle works a lot when you run. If your body hasn’t had time to adapt to your new exercise or running program, you may overwork these muscles to a point where your body can’t recover fully or quickly enough. This causes your pain or soreness. Causes of Shin Splints You are most at risk of shin splints, if you’re a new runner or if you have just returned to running from injury. Overtraining is often the cause of shin splints and sore calves. It’s easy to overdo it when you’re just starting out or have been longing to get back to your normal routine, say, after an injury. Increasing your distance, time or frequency may result in pain in the lower legs. What Does the Calf Sleeve Do? The calf compression splint puts pressure on the area it is covering. This pressure increases circulation and can keep the muscles loose to prevent injury. Many wearers say those muscles perform better and do not feel as sore after strenuous activities. Additionally, wearers indicate that they recover faster. Buy with Confidence If you are not satisfied with the leg compression wrap, you can get a new replacement or full refund within 30 days.
