Osgood-Schlatter er ein algengasta ástæða verkja framan á hné hjá börnum og unglingum á vaxtarskeiði. Vandamálið tengist vaxtarkjarna (apophysis) efst á sköflungi (tibia), rétt neðan við hnéskelina, þar sem patellarsinin festist. Vaxtarkjarnar eru úr brjóski og viðkvæmari fyrir álagi en þroskað bein, sérstaklega á vaxtarkippum.
Einkenni koma yfirleitt fram hjá krökkum á aldrinum 12–15 ára. Þeir sem stunda íþróttir sem fela í sér hlaup, hopp og spörk (t.d. fótbolti, körfubolti, handbolti, frjálsar íþróttir) eru líklegri til að fá verki. Strákar greinast oftar, en stúlkur geta líka fengið Osgood-Schlatter, sérstaklega ef þær eru virkar í íþróttum.
Við mikla hreyfingu verður togið frá patellarsin á vaxtarkjarnann meira en hann þolir tímabundið, sem veldur viðkvæmni og verkjum rétt neðan við hnéskelina.
Helstu einkenni Osgood-Schlatter eru:
Markmiðið er að minnka verki, bæta hreyfanleika og styrk, og gera barninu kleift að halda áfram í íþróttum án þess að einkenni versni.

I have been using the app now for six months pre and post surgery. What a benefit to use at home and in conjunction with visits to my physiotherapist. Highly recommended for physiotherapists to follow their patients.
