TY - JOUR PY - 2016// TI - Running Injuries During Adolescence and Childhood JO - Physical medicine and rehabilitation clinics of North America A1 - Krabak, Brian J. A1 - Snitily, Brian A1 - Milani, Carlo J. E. SP - 179 EP - 202 VL - 27 IS - 1 N2 - The popularity of running among young athletes has significantly increased over the past few decades. As the number of children who participate in running increases, so do the potential number of injuries to this group. Proper care of these athletes includes a thorough understanding of the unique physiology of the skeletally immature athlete and common injuries in this age group. Treatment should focus on athlete education, modification of training schedule, and correction of biomechanical deficits contributing to injury. Early identification and correction of these factors will allow a safe return to running sports.
