This is a unique population as there are certain conditions that only affect young athletes.  It is important to get an accurate diagnosis of the injury to enable appropriate and prompt management to prevent any conditions worsening, potentially leading to a permanent issue.  If the pain is of gradual onset and constant - never relenting and causing night pain - it is best to see a Sports Doctor for management.  Acute injuries are usually managed by a Physiotherapist.

All of our Physiotherapists can assist with the management of paediatric and adolescent sporting injuries.
