Osgood–Schlatter disease resolves or becomes asymptomatic in the majority of cases. One study showed that 90% of reported patients had symptom resolution in 12–24 months. Because of this short symptomatic period with most patients, the number of people who become diagnosed is a fraction of the true number.
[2] [4] Pain may worsen with sitting down with a bent knee for long periods of time, excessive use, or climbing and descending stairs. [1] [5] While the exact cause is unclear, it is believed to be due to overuse. [1] [2] Risk factors include trauma, increased training, and a weak quadriceps muscle. [1] It is particularly common among runners. [3]
Sever's disease is not a serious condition and many children get better without needing health professional care. If use of home treatments like putting ice on the heels or changing sport don't work, children should be assessed by a health professionals to personalise the treatment and make sure it really is calcaneal apophysitis.
Tenderness in the tibial tuberosity can arise from Osgood-Schlatter disease or deep infrapatellar bursitis. A bony prominence on the tibial tuberosity can be the result of ongoing Osgood-Schlatter’s irritation in an adolescent with open growth plates, or what remains of Osgood-Schlatter’s in adults. [5]
The source mentioned by User:Treetear says in conclusion "Osgood-Schlatter syndrome runs a self-limiting course, and usually complete recovery is expected with closure of the tibial growth plate" so clarified that it goes away typically once growth is done / with time.

It is analogous to Osgood–Schlatter disease which involves the upper margin of the tibia. This variant was discovered in 1908, during a winter indoor Olympic qualifier event in Scandinavia. Sever's disease is a similar condition affecting the heel.
Osgood–Schlatter disease, a painful lump on the knee, is common as well. [54] In infants, walking can be delayed (beyond 18 months of age), and bottom-shuffling instead of crawling occurs. [ 55 ]
Non-articular: This group includes Sever's disease (of the calcaneus, or heel), and other conditions not completely characteristic of the osteochondroses, such as Osgood-Schlatter's disease (of the tibial tubercle) [10] and Sinding-Larsen-Johansson syndrome (proximal patellar tendon).
