Hi,
My cousin has an overuse injury, well acording to his GP, who did not examine him!
All I was told by my aunty is that he suffering from pain in his heel.
He is about 10 years old and plays a lot of football (soccer :P).
I know that there is probably not enough information on the injury symptoms, but any information on what i could possibly be would be very useful and what can be done about it would be very useful!
Thanks,
Joe

Hi Joeynix
As youve said no really info about injury etc but first thing that comes to mind given that the GP has speculated at an overuse injury and that kids generally dont get tendon,muscle problems as a rule.
It could be sever's disease (don't panic its not really a disease) right sort of age for this growth related disorder.
have attached some sites for reference
