14 Jul Heel Pain…Is it Sever’s Disease?
Is your child complaining of heel pain after soccer?
Do you notice your child limping after playing sports only? Has your child been putting up with intermittent heel
pain for months now?
Your child could have Sever’s Disease. Sever’s disease is a common cause of heel pain in childhood and early adolescence. The condition often occurs in children who are highly active, particularly in sports involving running and jumping. In Sever’s disease repeated running
and jumping leads to a small injury where the calf muscle tendon attaches to the heel bone. The child may limp and complain of
pain during or after activity. One or both feet may be affected.
At My Favourite Physio, we help children with heel pain get back onto their feet and into their favourite sports sooner without pain persisting. If your child has been putting up with heel pain, ring My Favourite Physio
