The actress, whose chararacter is on the run from villainous Decepticon robots in the blockbuster, said that uncomfortable shoes were at fault for her injuries.
Speaking to USA Weekend about her footwear in the movie, Fox remarked: "Stilettos - and for the last part of the film, motorcycle boots. I had major shinsplints and threw out my back a couple times."
Fox added that director Michael Bay insisted that she have a sunkissed complexion for the action sequel: "Michael likes everyone freakishly tan, so we were painted maroon, like in the old Westerns when they hired Caucasians to play Native Americans.
"I had on fake eyelashes, running through the desert with sand stuck in them, and I'm sweating off all the makeup. It looked like we were making a tragedy."
Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen is out in UK and US cinemas on June 24.
