Subject: Peroneal Tendon Injury A few days ago, on mile 10 of a 13 mile run, I started feeling a slight discomfort in the outside part of the left foot just under the bony protrusion of my ankle bone. It didn't get worse, but I didn't run on it for 2 days. Then yesterday, doing some intervals, the pain came back, only it got a lot worse. So much that I had to cut the run short and walk part of the way back. I iced it for 20 minutes last night.
Today, walking and running on it now cause a sharp pain in the area. Pushing off with the ball of my foot causes the most pain. After poking around on some med sites, the only thing I can find about this area is the peroneal tendon. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of injury or area of the foot/ankle and how to treat it? |
