is a condition characterized by pain and swelling in the front of the knee, which usually occurs during growth spurts in adolescence. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">This condition, which mostly affects young athletes, is characterized by a painful bulge at the bottom of the knee, especially on the tibia (shin bone).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The main cause of Osgood-Schlatter disease is the constant and repeated stretching of the patellar tendon against the apex of the bone called the tibial tuberosity. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">This stretching occurs especially with frequent running, jumping and bending the knees. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">This constant stretching can cause minor micro-injuries in young people when the bone is still immature. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The body begins the healing process in response to these injuries, causing swelling, pain, and bone growth in the area.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"
