[quote=Anonymous]DD has had on/off shin splints for about 2 years. She runs for her HS XC team in the Fall and her HS Track team in the winter and currently now in Spring. Although she does have rest days, she still does a lot of running. We've tried different running shoes (via PR Running), spent a small fortune on their recommended running shoes based on her gait and foot strike, iced her shins as needed, compression socks, creams (Icy Hot), run on soft surfaces (ok during XC season, but almost impossible now during Track season) and Advil. Nothing really helps. The athletic trainer at school recommended an insole given that DD's shin splints are considered chronic. The athletic trainer also noticed DD's feet slope slightly inwards causing strain on her shins. If you are a runner and have (had) shin splints, did insoles (or anything else) alleviate it? I'm reading mixed reviews on various insoles (plastic, gel, foam, wide, narrow, high arch, low arch) so not really sure what will help. [/quote]
