Man, maybe yall can help me on this.

I just bought my first pair of cowboy boots. Just after the muscles on the side of my shins just below my calfs are killing me.

Now if or when I run the same muscles feel like a knife is in there.

Is that shin splints?

What should I try to do?

Well you probally just haven't wore any boots that had as much heel on them as those cowboy boots did. So you probally overstrained your calves, best advice take some pain killers and easy up on the running for about a week to let the muscle fibers reknit themselves. If you don't well...... your doctors not going to worry about putting his kids through school after he fixes your legs.

Get the hint?
