The best way to find out if Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome is the same as shin splints would be to look the information up in the medical book or ask a doctor.
Periostitis is the inflammation of the periosteum. It is a painful condition that may involve mild swelling and tenderness in the affected area. It often is associated with medial tibial stress syndrome (sometimes also referred to as “shin splints”), which commonly affects runners.

Shin splints or tibial stress syndrome often develops in athletes and exercise enthusiasts who overstress their bodies through rigorous physical activity without having sufficiently warmed their muscles up. By properly stretching before athletic activities are performed, however, these individuals can prevent the development of the sore, swollen muscles and stress fractures that signify the presence of this condition. It is generally recommend that all forms of exercise be both preceded and followed by a minimum of five minutes of activities that help to warm-up and stretch the muscle groups that will be used.
