Growth plate irritat: There is a growth plate in the location cited that sometimes becomes irritated yielding pain. Anti-inflammatories like ibuprophen may help some while a cool compress can provide some pain relief. Reduced physical activities may be required for a while. This is confirmed more by exam than x-ray.
