Treatment
Peroneal tendinitis generally takes 6-8 weeks to improve and early activity on a healing tendon can result in a set back in recovery. Non-compliance can double the recovery time and can be very frustrating for patients.
Early and aggressive conservative treatment is recommended to prevent further tendon injury. Dr. Stewart terms peroneal tendinitis a pro-active condition. Although we can never offer a 100% guarantee, the majority of Dr. Stewart’s patients improve with conservative (non-surgical care).
