Recently I have been seeing a lot of teenagers attend the clinic for the treatment of lower back pain. The majority of these teenagers have been actively playing cricket, swimming or other summer sports.   Most of these clients train and play sport several times a week, many often playing both juniors and seniors and sometimes participating in sport twice on some days.  Stress fractures in teenagers with low back pain is something that needs to be considered and ruled out when presenting to the clinic.  Please find attached an article that I have previously written regarding this.
