Calf & Shin Pain
Possible Causes
Calf and shin discomfort can build when the muscles of the lower leg are working harder than they’re used to or aren’t getting enough time to recover.
Running, walking, increasing training intensity and repetitive exercise can all contribute. Tight calves, changes in footwear or training surfaces, and restricted movement around the ankle may also place additional strain through the lower leg.
What It Feels Like
Symptoms of Calf & Shin Pain
Tight or aching calves during activity, afterwards, or when getting moving again following a period of rest.
Tenderness or discomfort through the shins, particularly when running, walking or increasing your training load.
Heavy or restricted lower legs that make your usual movement, pace or training feel harder than normal.
How I Can Help
Treatment for Calf or Shin Pain
Treatment can focus on reducing muscular tension through the calves and surrounding lower leg, while also looking at ankle mobility and other areas that may be contributing.
Sports massage and targeted soft tissue work can help loosen tight muscles, support comfortable movement and aid recovery, whether you’re dealing with the effects of training, repetitive activity or general lower-leg tightness.
