Go one step farther than the Dr. Scholls remedy. Go to a store/clinic that specializes in orthapaedic insoles. They usually have a name like the "Good Feet Store" or something with ortho in the name. They can either make you some custom insoles after a PT takes a look at you or they can recommend one of their standard options. I get a new set of custom ones made about every two years. This has eliminated all of the nagging knee, ankle and shin splint pain. Last time they cost about $65.00 but it was the best money I have ever spent on officiting equip. I use them in football and basketball.
