Has your teenager had a sudden growth spurt and is struggling with knee pain?

Osgood Schlatter's is a common growth related problem with the adolescent knee which physiotherapy can help with and allow your child to return to sport and function as soon as possible.

Physiotherapy for Osgood–Schlatter disease (OSD) focuses on reducing pain, managing load on the knee, and safely returning to sport.

Goals of Physiotherapy

✅ Reduce pain and inflammation at the tibial tuberosity

✅ Decrease tension through the quadriceps–patellar tendon unit

✅ Maintain strength and mobility

✅ Modify activity to allow healing while staying active

Key Physiotherapy Components

1. Activity Modification
Reduce or temporarily stop painful activities (jumping, sprinting, kneeling)

Replace with low-impact options (cycling, swimming)

2. Stretching (Very Important)

Tight muscles increase traction on the tibial tuberosity.

Daily stretches (pain-free):

Quadriceps

Hamstrings

Calves (gastrocnemius & soleus)

Hip flexors

Hold 20–30 seconds, 3–4 repetitions.

3. Strengthening (Progressive)

Start pain-free and progress gradually.

5. Pain Relief Strategies

Ice after activity (15–20 minutes)

Patellar tendon strap or taping may reduce symptoms

Education: pain does not mean damage, but overload worsens symptoms

6. Return to Sport

Important Notes:

OSD is self-limiting and usually resolves once growth plates close

Physiotherapy does not “cure” it instantly, but helps manage symptoms and prevent worsening
