What is Osgood-Schlatter’s Disease?

Osgood-Schlatter’s Disease is a common cause of knee pain in growing adolescents, often associated with physical activity and sports. This condition occurs when the growth plate at the top of the shinbone (tibia) becomes inflamed due to repetitive stress, particularly in young athletes who engage in running, jumping, and other high-impact movements.

Is Your Child Struggling with Knee Pain from Osgood-Schlatter’s Disease?

Living with Osgood-Schlatter’s Disease can be challenging for young athletes, as knee pain and tenderness may interfere with sports, physical education, and everyday activities. You may feel concerned about your child’s discomfort and uncertain about the best ways to support their recovery while allowing them to stay active. With the right approach, your child can relieve symptoms, improve knee stability, and safely return to doing what they love.

Osgood-Schlatter’s Disease Can Be Painful – But Relief is Achievable

Osgood-Schlatter’s Disease presents unique challenges, especially in growing adolescents:

  • Physical Limitations: Pain, swelling, and sensitivity in the knee that limit movement and sports participation.
  • Emotional Impact: Frustration for young athletes unable to engage fully in sports, concern over pain, and a desire for lasting relief and knee health.
  • Fairness: Every young person deserves access to effective, compassionate care that helps them manage knee pain, recover safely, and continue pursuing their physical interests.
