Peroneal Tendons
The two peroneal tendons run behind the outer ankle bone and are responsible for moving the foot outwards, as well as stabilizing the foot and ankle and protecting them from sprains. However, tendonitis, tears and dislocation can occur in the tendons.
Treatments include:
- Immobilization
- Medication
- Physical therapy
- Bracing
- Surgery
At Emory Sports Medicine, Dr. Sameh Labib specializes in treating all ankle and foot injuries.
