If i would go to the doctor for osgood schlatters disease would there be blood work or any needles at all?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
OS disease: Isnt really a disease. It is an inflammation of the apophysis or growth plate where the patellar tendon attaches at your tibia. If it hurts ice, nsaids, and activity modification should help. When you stop growing it should improve. You probably don't even need to see a doctor, just give it time.
