Kohler's Disease Treatment Guidelines Handout

Kohler's disease typically resolves on its own as the affected bone regains blood supply and heals naturally. Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and supporting the bone's recovery process.

Treatment may include rest, pain management with medications, supportive footwear, and in severe cases, orthopedic interventions such as casting or surgery to stabilize the affected bone.

Kohler disease is considered rare, primarily affecting children between the ages of 3 and 7 years old, with boys more commonly affected than girls.
