Good news: Osgood-Schlatter disease (OSD) is far less frightful than its name. Though it's one of the most common causes of knee pain in adolescents, it's really not a disease, but an overuse injury. OSD can be quite painful, but usually resolves itself within 12 to 24 months.
Definition/Description. Osgood-Schlatter disease is a traction apophysitis at the level of the tibial tubercle due to repetitive strain on the secondary ossification center of the tibial tuberosity. The repetitive strain is from the strong pull of the quadriceps muscle produced during sporting activities.
