💥Sever's disease taping🦶🏻Sever's disease, also known as calcaneus apophysitis, is an inflammation at the back of the heel (or calcaneus) growth plate in growing children.
✅The condition is thought to be caused by repetitive stress at the heel. ✅This condition is benign and common and usually resolves when the growth plate has closed or during periods of less activity. It occurs in both males and females.
✅There are a number of locations in the body that may get apophysitis pain.
✅Another common location is at the front of the knee which is known as apophysitis of the tibial tuberosity or Osgood Schlatter's disease. __________________________________________________________________________
Symptoms❗️
🌡Children with calcaneal apophysitis commonly complain of pain at the back of the heel.
🌡This pain increases with jumping and some running sports.
🌡Sometimes, the pain makes children limp and may result in poor sports performance or them not wanting to participate in some sports.
🌡The back of the heel is never swollen or red, unless there has been shoe rubbing.
🌡When the back of the heel is squeezed from the inside and outside, children with calcaneal apophysitis will report pain. __________________________________________________________________________
Cause❗️
✅There are no known causes of calcaneal apophysitis or any ways that it can be prevented. Instead there are things that may contribute to calcaneal apophysitis developing.
✅Children who complain of this type of heel pain commonly are taller or heavier.
✅They also often play sports that have higher jumping, running or direction changes like basketball or soccer.
✅It can also occur more in children who play on hard surfaces.
✅Sometimes children who also start a new sport also complain on this pain or it may happen at the start of a new season.
✅Because calcaneal apophysitis also occurs around puberty, it is thought that it is related to rapid growth and perhaps muscle tightness but this is not the case for all children.
