Peroneal Tendonitis

I didn’t even know there were ligaments in your perineum but it sounds painful.  GWS

Is peroneal an auto correct for achilles? Which makes no sense. Or am i wrong about where the peroneal is?

After a little research, the OP is right, but like everyone else, I was wondering if they really were tendons there and how it could affect your ankle.

I got something like that at the end of July and only now am I considering getting back on the bike next week. Have been hobbling around since then, it's been a pain in the perineum.

As its come on suddenly, you sure its not a ligament injury?

Rest is suggested but I’d really like to know what caused it.

I am not a physio, but I've been to a few, and within the last week. The guidelines I've been given is a short period of rest, no more, and not a long sustained rest. I'd assume it depends what is actually happening, but with the injuries I've had, total rest wouldn't fix anything, just get the initial inflammation/pain reduced. The actual fix is just better physical control, increasing range if its limited, and strength training.

I cant recommend getting to a good physio or sports therapist enough tbh.

Im in Epsom does anyone have any recommendations?

Age ?

Get all sorts of foot pain issues now I'm in my 50's - can be how I slept with where my feet were. Desk job here, so walk like an 80 year old every time I get up, until I get stuff moving properly.

I’m 59 and on my feet all day. If I did something epic to hurt my ankle I could understand but in my sleep?

I had this, saw a physio. He gave me some stretches to do with a giant green elastic band and told me to keep running. Worked.

I sometimes get this. The cause may be lack of hip extension (cycle and sit a lot?). You could check this yourself doing a Thomas Test (Google it).

Treating tendinopathy is fixed with progressive loading. I would go and see a physio, he can check your mobility and guide you how to load the tendon correctly. You don't want any of that ultrasound, dry needling or other nonsense.

Watching this with interest.... I thought I was on the road to recovery post insertional achilles surgery - and then all of a sudden pain around the outside of the heel and into the foot. Just from a hill climb on the bike (that I have done several times as part of rehab).

Now I cannot shift this pain! Never ending....

you could try Massimo at Surrey Hills physio (he's at Denbies  - his missus runs various classes there as well).  he's quite well regarded locally for sports issues. https://shphealth.co.uk/who-we-are/meet-the-team/

also Zippy, my sister jo works here https://www.epsomphysiotherapy.co.uk/the-team/pilates-instructors/ she's very good with sports injuries having fixed me multiple times.

Sui ,that looks perfect. I've got a buggered knee which has led to me having a much weaker leg.
The poorly leg needs strengthening but I don't know how to do it with a buggered knee.

I followed Sui's recommendations and thanks to John's healing hands Ive had my first ache free ride in years.

Give them a visit if you need fixing.
