Leg tendon injury: Muscles of the leg have an action on the foot, or conversely, the muscles that govern the foot are in the leg. As a tendon is part of a muscle, careful exam of foot function can identify the injured leg tendon (or muscle). To recover from a tendon injury, one must identify the tendon (w/ or w/o mri), then splint or immobilize it until it heals or mends, and depending on the case, undergo p.T.
