Abstract
In brief Patients with overuse injuries brief benefit from systematic diagnosis and a five-phase approach to treatment. Focusing on four chronic conditions common among children and adolescents—Little League elbow, Osgood-Schlatter disease, Sever's disease, and stress fracture—the author applies this practical stratagem for diagnosis and management.Keywords
