i have shin splints on both legs. I run track so there’s no time for rest. should I get a brace or tape them? if I need to tape them, how do you do it?

I am in tennis and I have shin splints. I have talked to many people and they all say “take it easy.” and its hard just to take it easy in tennis. I have to run, and I have tried all the shoe pads, and new shoes, I ice everyday and take tylenol before a game or practice. It helps some but I am still in pain. What else can I do, can I tape them, or can I wrap them, if so, how do I wrap them???? Please help!

I have a tight end that has shin splints in the front. I have taped him with pre-wrap the strips going up on the shin leaving the back open. I received some information on taping on the internet but I would like to have some more ideas on taping the player. Thank you, Brian Helton
