A member asked:
Is surgery the only option for this? large volume thickening and edema along the peroneal brevis and longus tendons due to tendinosis and partial tear?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I do not have enough information to consider alternatives to surgery. It would help if you can list the conservative care provided. Also history to this point in care would help. The partial tear could cause chronic swelling but feel conservative care needs to be tried. Orthotics can be very beneficial for peroneal tendinitis due do over pronation. The peroneal groove needs to be be considered.
