What Is Peroneal Tendinosis?

We want to help you understand what peroneal tendinosis is and how it can affect your ankle health. The peroneal tendon is a crucial component of your ankle, connecting muscle to bone at the back of your ankle. When this tendon is overused or overexerted, it can cause the peroneal tendon to thicken or swell, resulting in a condition known as peroneal tendinosis.

It's important to note that peroneal tendinosis has previously been mislabeled as peroneal tendinitis, but recent research has shown that the tendon typically thickens and isn't invaded by inflammatory cells, making tendinosis a more accurate term for this condition.

If you're experiencing discomfort or swelling in the back of your ankle, it's possible that peroneal tendinosis may be the culprit. Fortunately, our team at Pomona Valley Podiatry Group has the expertise to diagnose and treat this condition effectively.

We believe that patient education is an essential part of the healing process, and we're committed to helping you understand your condition fully. Our team will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan that takes into account your unique needs and goals, ensuring that you receive the care you need to overcome peroneal tendinosis and return to your daily activities without discomfort.

Peroneal Tendinosis Treatment. What To Expect!

We want to assure you that surgery is a rare necessity for treating peroneal tendinosis. Our ankle specialist, Dr. O'Neill, is highly experienced in utilizing conservative treatment approaches that are effective in managing this condition. Some of the treatment options that we may recommend include:

Rest: Giving your ankle time to rest and recover can be an essential part of the healing process. We may recommend modifying your activities or even taking a break from certain activities to allow your ankle to heal properly.
Ankle brace: Wearing a brace can help to provide support to your ankle and reduce the strain on your peroneal tendon. Depending on your individual needs, we may recommend a custom-made brace to ensure a comfortable and secure fit.
Walking boot: In more severe cases of peroneal tendinosis, we may recommend a walking boot to help immobilize your ankle and reduce strain on the affected tendon.
Footwear and exercise analysis: Our team will work with you to analyze your footwear and exercise routine to identify any factors that may be contributing to your ankle pain. We can then provide recommendations for modifications to help prevent a recurrence of the condition in the future.

At Pomona Valley Podiatry Group, we believe that a conservative approach is often the most effective way to manage peroneal tendinosis. Our goal is to provide you with the support and guidance you need to overcome this condition and get back to the activities you love.
