Yes: SCFE is typically an adolescent condition, and for an adolescent who has been treated for SCFE, with subsequent screw removal, running should be safe. However, the severity of the SCFE could potentially have an effect on the patient's long term hip function, which may require further treatment. If you have had recent surgery for SCFE, you should discuss your concerns with your surgeon.
