kevin25,

Of course, I am not a doctor, but when the boys are that age, the plates that are between the bone joints are not fully hardend because they are not fully grown.

Throwing a baseball, especially long toss, after a summer of baseball, can stress those plates and cause them to crack, or what is known as a stress fracture.

I didn't listen to my son when he was 13 for a long time. Finally, I took him to the doctor.

As soon as my son described his condition, the sports doctor, said, "He has a stress fracture. Take the rest of the fall off to let it heal"

I described my experience for you because I think the "13" jumped out at me and jogged my memory.

Take him to a sports doctor.
