If you have an adolescent daughter who is struggling with knee pain, or are coaching or treating girls with this problem, you know how debilitating it can be, and how tough they find time away from sport and social activities involving moving around. The old fashioned advice was to wait to 'grow out of it.' We now know there’s so much we can do to help manage pain and keep them active and happy.
There are important differences in managing girls with this issue too, and knowing these is vital to helping girls get better.
