Shin splints pain

To be brief.

For the last few years (I am 21), I have experienced significant pain in my shins during almost any evening physical activity. I wear orthotics for flat feet. The most intense pain comes from simple jogging—whether on pavement or trails—but sports trigger it as well. Does anyone have an idea what might be causing this issue?

Thanks,

I used to get that exact same ache right after an aerobics class, and honestly, I’m pretty convinced it was just because I was pushing myself way too hard. About six months back, since I deal with some nagging back pain and scoliosis—mostly because I spend basically my entire life hunched over my computer at work—I decided to go see a chiropractor for some adjustments. It was such a game-changer because once they got everything lined up, that knee pain I was dealing with just completely vanished. Now I’m hitting up Zumba classes and jumping around without a single issue. 😁
