I had OSD when I was 14, I'm now 33 and it's still there. The bump has even become bigger. It's clearly seen in my trousers when I sit. It's like I've two knees. Frustrating.
It’s common on athletes specially the ones that started early 90’s as we tended to overwork cause of lack of knowledge in the past, I have it since 12 now 33 and still.
I did some Bulgarian split squats with significant weight in my hands, and have had consistent sore pain since. Taping has only given minimal relief. I’ll try these stretches and workouts.
Got it for 2 years now. I think stretching works, but if you train 4 days per week and play 1 match per week like me, stretching is not going to stop the pain. I take some homeopathic medicins and a physiotherapist is stretching and cracking my back, because I'm growing and everything will be looser. It goes at times, sometimes its less painfull then other days. Sorry for my grammar, I'm 15 (Dutch,The Netherlands)
Have you considered getting your stride and strike pattern analysed. How your legs cycle through your run and how your feet strike the ground could also be a cause to running pain in the ankles, knees and hips. Thank you for the comment.
@ScarFace idk man i just left it alone i was wearing some kind of straps but it didn't help...so i stopped wearing them and now i can run and play football(or soccer) and it doesn't hurt...sometimes it does but a little
@ScarFace i wore the straps for like a year...maybe try that wear them and basically don't run,play soccer...that's my advice 🤷♂️ maybe quarantine helped me a little bcuz i was just laying in bed all day
I had a really bad case of Osgood Schlatters and it left me with a huge bump on my knees. There is no pain but I bump. I would recommend physical therapy for anyone with Osgood. It helped me get rid of it fast.
I have osgood atm at a very high level, my physio said it’s the worse he has ever seen but I only ended up missing 1 game out of my entire season when I was expected to miss half a season. I did this by doing the stretches and icing, for me icing was the most important part, if I didn’t have time to do both I would prioritise icing.
yes ik i also have i take ic press it hard as i can in the thing in like an hour while watchong movie then it get much better it but idk its forever or not but just press it in the foot with ice
After alot of reading online due to my son having this (i have no medical background) it's very important to build up when you start exercising again. Definetly don't pick up where you left off, give your body (and more importantly your knees) time to get back into it. But if you're painfree it shouldn't be a problem to start training again.
Yes bro I did. I used kneecap for 6months didn't play games that has lot to with legs. I was 14 years old when it started. I had to stay away from soccer. Now a days O don't have the pain but I understand how it feels. Now I am 23.
Yea doing rehab exercises and strengthening your leg progressively is the key. Make sure to strengthen everyday at least twice even during your rest days
I don't think you understand what she's trying to demonstrate. She's showing you the muscles that are tight and cause the pulling on the patellar tendon. The whole muscular/tendon system of the leg connect from the hip down through the quad into the patellar tendon, which then connects to the shin bone. She isn't showing what OSD looks like. I know you commented 4 years ago. This is for anyone reading it today so they aren't mislead by your inaccurate comment. I think you use of the word "broken bond" is not correct. The tendon isn't broken with OSD. It's inflamed.
No you should not need to stop playing football. If might require sometime off, and practicing a mobility and strength regimen. Males and females have different hip knee alignment which can sometimes cause this issue to persist. Getting your alignment analysed by a professional can help determine if this is a cause.
Hi Slorpy, I'm sorry you had to quit soccer. Did you ever get assessed by a medical professional for other possible bio-mechanical issues that could be causing the pain? Bone and muscle structure as well as movement patterns can cause continual pain if not addressed and worked on.
