A member asked:
Ankle sprain over a year ago. followed by chronic ankle instability, peroneal tendonitis and achilles tendonitis. have done pt for all conditions. ankle is still unstable when tested by doctor, but no ligament tear. are these injuries related?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Interrelated: A significant ankle injury probably caused you to ambulate improperly causing the other 2 issues. As for the chronic ankle problem, I would get a second opinion regarding diagnosis and treatment options from an orthopedic specialist specializing in chronic ankle pathology as a result of prior injury. Such a specialist is found in a university hospital orthopedic department.
