7 EDITION 4 Page 7 Medical Corner Overuse Injuries in the Growing Athlete The future of a netball club is reliant on junior development. As a result junior netball players are often playing and training multiple times during the week. While managing a developing body there is a greater risk of overuse injuries due to areas of weakness in the bones. As parents it s important to be able recognise signs and symptoms of overuse injuries and when to act. Bones are able to grow in length through an area at each end of the bone called a growth plate. Over time this growth plate turns into bone tissue as it expands in length, to eventually become all bone tissue. However bones grow in length, before they become strong, while the growth plates are the weakest link in the bone. As a result, injury to bone and cartilage (including growth plates) are much more likely than ligament, muscle and tendon injuries in the growing person, but these certainly do occur. While bones grow quickly during a growth spurt, muscles take much longer to stretch and adapt to the change in bone length. As a result, muscles are already tight even before activity and need time to develop their new length. When participating in sport regularly our muscles grow in strength and become tighter as result of activity. So when a growth spurt occurs during a period of increased of sporting activity, the resulting effect is far greater muscle tightness than either of these events happening individually. This directly results in an increased risk of injury. The most common overuse injury in this phase is called traction apophysitis. Meaning the muscle/tendon causes excessive traction over the growth plate (apophoseal plate), an inflammatory reaction occurs over the area, resulting in swelling and pain. In the lower limb the 2 most common are Osgood Schlatter disease in the knee and Sever s disease in the heel. In the case of Osgood Schlatter disease, the quadriceps muscles have tightened during a growth spurt, while this is occurring the child/teenager is playing an increased amount of sport, causing the quadriceps muscles to strengthen and become tight again. Subsequently there s a stronger pull at it s insertion below the knee cap and producing an inflammatory reaction over the growth plate. This is common in both boys and girls, but the impact of the condition tends to be proportional to the level of activity. There is not a cure to this problem, except time, however there are important management strategies that help assist with recovery, along with preventing further damage. Clinical diagnosis can be performed by a physiotherapist or GP, symptoms may include limping, swelling over the affected area, loss of strength and pain. Symptoms tend to vary over months, often becoming worse during winter (potentially a relationship to Vitamin D deficiency). Initially treatment is simply RICER (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation and Refer), while physiotherapy treatment may consist of massage, stretching, maintenance and restoration of strength of the affected muscles, along with core stability exercises. The severity of the condition will obviously determine the how aggressively the condition is managed. If the child is limping during activity and fine afterwards, then reducing activity load and icing after activity would be appropriate. However in more extreme cases, if pain is causing a severe limp, then using crutches and splinting, along with stopping activity may be necessary. These types of overuse injuries can often be avoided or severely diminished if diagnosed early. Being cautious and seeking advise helps ensure a more rapid rate of recovery during this period in the developing body, when injuries are more common.
