Abstract
Athletic injuries involving the leg are common. They span all age grou
ps and levels of athletic performance. Many of these are overuse injur
ies and may result from abrupt changes in the athlete's training progr
am. Rest is the cornerstone of therapy. The need for surgical interven
tion is uncommon.
