Osgood-Schlatter Disease
No one should have to live with intense pain or discomfort. Least of all, children. Osgood-Schlatter disease is the most common cause of knee pain in children and young adults who are still growing. It is considered an overuse injury of the knee that causes a painful bump and swelling on the shinbone below the knee. Most people have probably never heard of Osgood-Schlatter disease, and the symptoms may resemble other conditions of the knee.
