A member asked:
Post surgery for peroneal tendon sublux, tendons still snap - more painful. possible to ablate sensory nerve going to tendons to avoid repeat surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not good idea : While it is theoretically possible to ablate the sensory nerves, that would definitely not be a good idea. These are the nerves that supply sensation to your lateral foot and are important to protect your foot from injury. Better to get problem taken care of, consider a second opinion as well.
