Ice your shins. Starting the day you get shin splints, you need to ice your shins. The coolness of the ice will help decrease the inflammation of the muscles in your shins and help alleviate the pain. You should ice them four to six times a day for 15 minutes at a time. Make sure you wrap any ice pack with a cloth or towel.
