A member asked:

Since my early teen years i've dealt with olsgood schlatters (sp?), but several months ago the pain and swelling suddenly stopped. can i be active?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Usually osgood-schlatters is a self limited problem of early teen years. It often subsides and goes away on its own 2-3 years after diagnosis. If you feel ok then go ahead and be active.
