[Medial stress syndrome in military conscripts].
Thirty-two Danish recruits had signs and symptoms compatible with shin splints. 65% of the cases noticed symptoms during the first four weeks of conscription. 78% were free from symptoms after 30 days exemption from physical exercise. The patients were examined together with a group without shin splints. The passive subtalar joint mobility was identical in the two groups. When examining the subtalar joint position in the standing position, increased eversion was found in the group with shin splints.
