Sever's disease, also known as Sever's disease, is a condition that – just like Osgood-Schlatter disease – mostly affects children and adolescents during growth. Sever's disease manifests as pain in the heel area.
Growing pains? These are the reasons for Sever's disease
One of the causes of the condition is related to the anatomy during growth. The Achilles tendon attaches to the heel bone: Here is a growth plate, a sensitive zone that is not yet fully ossified: Through sports activities or rapid growth, the attachment of the Achilles tendon to the heel bone (calcaneus) can be overloaded.
This can become uncomfortable: Pain at the back of the heel – usually on both sides – or increased discomfort during exertion, such as running or jumping, can indicate Sever's disease.
