Salter-Harris Fracture of the Proximal Humerus in an Adolescent Gymnast.

A 13-year-old male gymnast presented via direct access to physical therapy with a chief complaint of insidious-onset right anterolateral shoulder pain that occurred only when performing on the rings and high bar. Following physical examination, the patient was advised to avoid any gymnastic activities that might cause pain while completing stretching and neuromuscular training over the following 2 weeks. Due to continued symptoms, the patient was then referred to an orthopaedist. Radiographs were performed, followed by magnetic resonance imaging without contrast. The patient was diagnosed with a type 1 Salter-Harris fracture. J Orthop Sports Phys Ther 2018;48(9):729. doi:10.2519/jospt.2018.7296.
