how long for shin splints to heal
Shin splints usually take about a week or two to heal. If you ice them, and also tape your legs, they would normally heal quicker. If you keep doing what caused those shin splints then they would also take longer to heal. The healing also occurs and depends on how fast your body heals to these type of things. In some cases, shin splints can last for months. It has taken me over 6 months, and I have a fellow runner who is on month 8.
