title: Overuse Syndromes of the Back and Legs in Adolescents.
abstract: Common overuse syndromes of the back and lower extremities are discussed in terms of relevant history, physical examination, and treatment options. These syndromes are most often associated with a significant change or increase in normal training habits or with repetitive stresses to structures that are abnormally loaded. Strategies for treatment and prevention of recurrence are emphasized, along with the philosophy of "let the kids play the game at their own pace."
