The unit only pumping air to pressurize and squeeze the area, not a massager

Sorry I don't know if this device would help in your situation. However if I may suggest purchase one and give it a try. If it doesn't work you can always return it to Amazon. Make sure you get the right fitting for your need.

My experience is that pretty much any of these will be at least a bit uncomfortable simply because you aren't meant to rest so much weight on your shin and knee for extended periods of time. I would overall recommend this model, but would also recommend getting a padded cover for the pad, which will give you a bit more comfort.

Not at all... My advice this device not worth the money. Not effective at all. I can sell you mine for half price.Thanks

I am not familiar with this condition. So I googled it. It is only my opinion that I think it would help. I purchased this system for my plantar fasciitis which is heel pain. I found that following the protocol was extremely helpful. I was told to learn to live with my condition, get special shoes or opt for surgery. That was not an option for me. Diligence is required and getting past the initial pain is key. It was a "hurts so good" because I got tremendous relief. I no longer have plantar fasciitis. I don't know if this answer has been a help to you but I believe it is definitely worth the effort. Occasionally I still use my walkers when my feet are tired.

Yes.. you will be able to, but not for long as the ankle support is not cushioned enough, so it does start paining in few minutes.

The TC's treadles go up down with your steps, so yes it is a constant incline. It is very low impact. I am 63 have always had shin splints. I just got done, no pain. TC is major investment but worth it. My wife also uses it.

Yes it would :) Just might hurt more than normal haha. I sometimes use this for my leg hairs.

Although I'm not a Dr. using the Tens might ease up the pain but I think you really need to see a Dr. because if it is a 'pniched nerve' there's more serious things going on that the 'TENS' system might not be the system you need to use. Before using I would talk to a Dr. and if he advises using the unit then you're good to go with his advice. Hope this helps, Paul.

I cannot attest one way or another if this device helps plantar fasciitis pain because I just bought the unit and haven't used it yet. However, my husband had a terrible case of PF from wearing steel toed boots in the oil field, and he derived complete relief from these insoles:Powerstep Pinnacle Men's / Women's Full Length Insoles M 10-10.5 / W 12-12.5 Size GHe has since bought a dozen or so pairs! They helped him when a podiatrist's prescribed boots did not!

It's really thick. Probably would not fit well under shin pads. It's not very comfortable and doesn't give u good mobility when it comes to something like that

It has been awhile since my accident, but the low top came somewhere on my upper shin, I am 5'6''. Worked well on stabilizing a broken dancer bone. I also liked it because you could adjust the tightness with the press air bladder. Good luck and heal fast.

No, I don't think this device will work for you. I don't wear compression socks but a friend of mine does, and he needs assistance daily to put them on.I bought this because I have trouble (at 67 years of age) of touching my toes and have had difficulty every day putting on my wool socks - this certainly makes the chore much easier.

This device stimulates your muscles rather than manipulates them manually as a previous response states. I think this is a wonderful device. It is small and I can take it anywhere. This winter I am back to painless snow shoveling. Previously I would be in pain for weeks following a shoveling event. I move easier and no longer fear the pain which always makes it worse.

I have a larger leg circumference so that affects the surface area accomdoated. The contact points for me are just a bit to the outside of the knee cap itself. If you are experiencing pain directly on the knee cap or below it (i.e. shin area) this would likely cause a dilemma for you, otherwise you would be alright I would think. If it is in the area that would create a dilemma, (lamentably I have had pain there too!) I have used a standard ice pack with an ace bandage. Best of luck

Yes, this is a TENS device and it works wonders. I absolutely love it. Works as advertised and oh so easy.

I used for metatarsalgia and they helped. I would "guess" they would help you as well.
