I'll certainly give it a try. Thanks, Doc.
Apparently, medial shin splints are caused by scar matter forming but not going away, which presses on the nerves. The best way to deal with them, if this is true, is to massage the effected areas hard so as to dislodge the scar tissue.

This is all according to the dude that owns my local running store, so it could be total BS. However, it seems to be working. I ice my shins after long runs, too.

Now where's that dang bottle of Sol?
