Any one with osgood-shlatters?

I have the constant issue with my knee pads and my knee not working together, my right knee has osgood-shlatters. Those that have it know its like having a second knee cap, and a pain in the ass. Because of how shin pads fit, it doesnt work. Where the pad bends with the knee it goes right on the bump, putting uncomfortable pressure, and when I get hit, or fall on my knees its excruciatingly painful.

My work around is pulling knee pads wayy up, but of course they arent built to fit like that, so they slide down. How do you guys work around this? Is there a specific brand of pads you recommend, or do I need a custom fit kind of?
