The treatment for overuse-induced growth zone inflammation is primarily relief, as the growth zones cannot be trained stronger. It is important to keep ‘all’ other muscles working while the tendon attachments on the growth zone of the ischial tuberosity heal.
The training exercises must not provoke known pain during or after training. If surgery has been performed due to a tear in the growth zone, rehabilitation should be agreed with the doctors who performed the treatment.

Attach an exercise band to a heavy chair leg. Sit on the floor with your leg straight with the outside of the training foot next to the chair leg. Wrap the exercise band around your forefoot (inside). Slowly turn your foot sideways towards the other foot to tighten the elastic band. Hold the tension for a few seconds and slowly move the foot back to the starting position. Do not rotate the knee.
