Does anyone out there have this. This is my diagnosis. If so what are you doing? I would appreciate any help. My knees are getting a lot worse. Thanks

Osgood Schlatter
Posted: 10-17-04 19:34pm

Well, I had osgood schlatter. I went to a really good specialtist in houston, tx. I got os from dancing. I didn't have advanced os, but I did have os. I had to stop dancing, do some physical therapy, and wear a knee brace. Rest is really what helped my os. At first it was hard to stop all my activities, but my physical therapist gave me exercises to keep my strength. I went through a couple of knee braces, all of them suggested by my doctor, because I eventually found I was allergic to neoprine. But I even tually found a knee brace that was neoprine-free and worked for me. If you don't have a knee brace, I would suggest looking into that. I also would say if you don't see a specialtist, find one! Hope I helped.

Well I was reading about osd. The main treatement for osd is rest to the affected knee. Either this given by plaster or brace. For some people either of these treatment willhelp to cure. Remember ronaldo foot ball player from brazil. Then finally you need to go for the minor sugery to fuse the tibial tubersosity
