Resumo: Shin splint, also known as tibial stress syndrome, results from an underlying stress reaction of the tibia caused by overuse. The patient typically refers a diffuse pain along the anteromedial side of the tibia, which is worse in late afternoon and associated with over-exercising days. Diagnosis is confirmed by a prototypical history and physical examination findings. Radiological evaluation assists in differential diagnosis. Treatment consists of adequately resting or changing training routines, together with analgesic drugs. Herein is presented the case of an adolescent referred to our Pediatric Rheumatology Unit with diffuse pain in the right pretibial region due to intensive exercise. Laboratory study and imaging exams were unremarkable. Clinical improvement following reduced exercise intensity supported diagnosis.

Tipicamente, o doente queixa-se de uma dor difusa ao longo da face anteromedial da tíbia, de predomínio vespertino, agravada nos dias de atividade física intensa. O diagnóstico é confirmado por história clínica típica e por achados ao exame físico. Os exames radiológicos auxiliam o diagnóstico diferencial. O tratamento inclui repouso ou alteração do plano de treino, assim como analgesia. É apresentado o caso de uma adolescente referenciada à Unidade de Reumatologia Pediátrica por dor difusa na região pré-tibial direita relacionada com exercício excessivo. Os estudos analítico e radiológico não revelaram alterações. A melhoria clínica coincidente com a redução da intensidade do exercício físico sustentou o diagnóstico.Centro Hospitalar Universitário do Porto2019-12-16T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.25753/BirthGrowthMJ.v28.i4.15161eng2183-9417Miranda, PatríciaNascimento, JoãoEstanqueiro, PaulaSalgado, Manuelinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-09-21T14:55:31Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/15161Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:56:27.743129Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
