I started running a few months ago and constantly have pain in my shins. It has recently gotten more severe and I'd like to find a good sports medicine doctor to look at it. Any recommendations are appreciated!

you really shouldn't need a doctor for shin splints. Try running on softer surfaces, new shoes, plenty of water and work on your form. Shin splints are really just where your muscles tear away from your bone because if impact/ conditioning.

Hard to beat Ortho Carolina, they've got a specialist for just about any sports related injury at their Sports Medicine Clinic.

Sports Medicine Center

I really like Aaron Hewit, a PA there, and would highly recommend him
