Common running injuries are problems related to pain in the feet, shins, calf, and knees. Treat running injuries with RICE therapy: rest, ice, compression, and elevation. Take aspirin or ibuprofen to reduce inflammation. These medications should not be taken without approval from your healthcare provider if you have an ulcer, kidney problems, an allergy to aspirin, or are on a blood-thinning medication.
