Osgood Schlatter syndrome

What is Osgood Schlatter syndrome?

Osgood Schlatter syndrome (OSD), also known as osteochondritis of the anterior tibial tubercle, is an avulsion fracture of the tibial tubercle due to repetitive loading activities, usually occurring in adolescents undergoing rapid development.

 

How is this syndrome treated?

For Osgood-Schlatter syndrome we apply physiotherapy treatment and osteopathy to eliminate pain and inflammation.

Improve muscle strength and control, as well as nerve control, through a combination of treatment based on manual therapyrehabilitation exercises and technology.

For this purpose, at Clínica Sohail we carry out a global assessment beforehandWe perform a thorough and complete examination of the musculoskeletal and nervous system, and depending on the results, we assess which type of treatment is the most appropriate for the patient. In a cross-cutting manner, the readaptation team will carry out an intervention through therapeutic exercise

 

Depending on the degree of injury, and together with the application of technology such as ultrasound-guided percutaneous intratissue electrolysis (EPI), and Echoguided Percutaneous Percutaneous Neuromodulation, Shock waves, Imoove or Magnetic Resonance Therapy (MBST), we will work with a program of control exercises, global postural reeducation (RPG) and/or strength exercises.

 

The Hyperbaric Chamber can be a great ally in the recovery, thanks to the oxygenation that occurs in the tissues that is produced in the tissues, reduces the recovery times of breaks, wounds, muscle injuries and bone fractures.
