My teenage son and Bicuspid Aortic Valve

Osgood Schlatter’s Disease is common in young people. With physical activity the tendon from kneecap to tibia rubs over the bone with movement and the top of the tibia becomes painful, inflamed and swollen. It is not a serious condition- it will calm down. Icing and rest helps as well as anti inflammatory medications.

My son had it during the time of rapid growth when he was in early teens. It passed. Used to be bed rest for a long time, but he did fine treating the symptoms of pain and it pretty much went away.
