⚽🏀🏃♀️ Does your kid athlete limp after practice or games because of heel pain?
It might not just be “growing pains.” One common cause is calcaneal apophysitis (also known as Sever’s disease)—a growth plate inflammation in the heel that often affects active kids during sports season. 👟🦶
If your child complains of heel pain, tenderness, or starts limping after practices or tournaments, it’s important to get it checked out early. The right stretches, activity modifications, supportive shoes, and sometimes orthotics can make a HUGE difference in keeping them on the field and pain-free!
