Abstract
In this report, we discuss the results of questionnaires and direct examinations on the running injuries of junior-high school and high school runners in Saga city. 354 cases were surveyed (Junior-high school; 130 boys and 102 girls, High school; 76 boys and 46 girls).92 (39.65%) out of 232 junior high school runners and 60 (49.18%) of 122 high school runners were not satisfied with their performance due to pain during and/or after running. According to the injured lesions, the highest incidence was the foot in junior-high school boys, knee in junior-high school girls, and foot in high school boys and girls, respectively. According to the diagnostic criterea, low back pain including spondylolysis showed the highest incidence, Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome (MTSS) the second, and Chondromalacia Patellae the third, in both the junior-high school and high school athletes. We studied the correlation of the clinical symptoms of MTSS and the specific findings of the periosteum and bone marrow by means of MRI, and found a signicant correlation between them.
