Knee Pain in Kids!? Parents, Take a Breath
You love attending your kids’ activities. Soccer, basketball, softball, the list of the sports your kiddo partakes and game seasons gets longer every year. Sadly, many youngsters complain to their parents about chronic knee pain, causing concern. Most parents shouldn’t worry.
Many older children and teens can experience temporary knee pain due to overuse and growth spurts.
