More young people are participating in sports today than ever before. Not only are children and adolescents playing in more competitive sports, but they are also suffering increasing numbers of sports-related injuries. The Pediatric Sports Medicine doctors at HSS specialize in sports injuries in children. Those injuries can range from common sprains and strains to growth plate injuries, osteochondritis dissecans, patella sublaxation / dislocation, discoid meniscus, and injuries of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).
