The Daily Mail are reporting: Thousands wrongly diagnosed with shin splints are 'left in pain and without proper treatment'

Thousands of people are being wrongly told they have shin splints, leaving them in pain and without proper treatment, warn experts.
Shin splints is a 'catch-all' diagnosis for lower leg pain triggered by sporting activities such as running, dancing and football.
But it actually covers 31 different conditions which means many sufferers are failing to get targeted help that would put them back on their feet, it is claimed.
