Severs disease is a common disorder of the heel in the growing foot that most usually occurs around the ages of 10-15 years. It is thought to be an overuse injury and is more common in active children. Calcaneal apophysitis is the medical term for this problem. The pain is usually felt at the sides or back of the heel.
When we are born the heel bone is largely conssists of cartilage and the bone starts to develop in the middle of this cartilage. A flat piece of bone develops at the back
