🏈⚽🏐 Ready, Set, Play! The New School Sports Season is Here! 🏃‍♀️🏀🏃‍♂️

As students head back to school, it's also time to get back on the field, court, track, and playground! At Growing Bones Orthopaedics, we want to help young athletes start the season strong and stay injury-free.

✅ Make sure your child is physically prepared for their sport
✅ Ease back into activity with proper conditioning and stretching
✅ Wear well-fitting, sport-specific protective equipment
✅ Stay hydrated and get plenty of rest
✅ Never ignore pain that persists during or after activity

Growing bodies are still developing, and early attention to aches, pains, or injuries can help prevent bigger problems down the road.

If your child is experiencing joint pain, limping, recurrent injuries, or a sports-related concern, our pediatric orthopedic specialists are here to help keep them moving safely and confidently all season long.

📞 Contact Growing Bones today to schedule an evaluation.

Wishing all of our student athletes a safe, healthy, and successful school year!

Summer is almost here and it is already heating up!
Make sure you'll are taking care of yourselves while having fun!

Here are some summer hydration tips while you're outside playing:

🟢 HYDRATION

💧 Drink BEFORE you’re thirsty
Thirst often means dehydration has already started

💧 Take water breaks every 15–20 minutes
Helps maintain performance and prevent fatigue

💧 Hydrate before, during, and after play
It’s not just about game time—it’s all day

💧 Watch for signs like fatigue or irritability
These can be early dehydration warnings
