As climbing's increasing popularity attracts more and more people to the sport, it also attracts more and more young climbers. This is of course positive, but also makes for an understanding of the more specific injuries that youth climbers are exposed to.
In this episode we'll discuss how and when the growing skeleton matures, and why this is important knowledge for everyone involved in youth climbing. We'll discuss growth plates and injuries to these - called epiphyseal stress fractures. Since these carry with them a potential risk for long term consequences we need to identify and deal with them early. We'll explain how to diagnose them, how to manage them and also discuss what can be done to reduce the risk of them occurring in the first place.
