A study of 2,777 first-year midshipmen was done using four prophylactic programs for prevention of shin splints. None were effective. Treatment of the ninety-seven men in whom shin splints developed was divided into five regimens. All were effective to varying degrees. Prohibition of running was common to all the treatments.
