severs disease
(2 discussions)
My daughter is 12 years old and suffers from Sever’s disease.
It bothers mostly her right heel. She does gymnastics 14 hours a week, sohaving her take a break is not an option for her. I have taken her to physical therapy and she wearsheel cups in her shoes, and a heel cup while she’spracticing. She ices her foot at night and takesIbuprofen. Do you have any suggestions to ease herdiscomfort?

Talk to your doctor. I am a gymnast too. Maybe cut back o few hours on gymnasatics. Like instead of 14 hours do 12. You can buy special supports for things like this.
