Guide To Treating Peroneal Tendonitis

Increase Exercise Gradually

After an individual has experienced peroneal tendonitis, it's important to increase exercise gradually. If patients use physical therapy as part of their recovery, the physical therapist may prescribe an ongoing stretching and exercise plan. Once healed, patients need to increase their activity levels gradually. If the injury was caused by running, individuals can't immediately return to the same running intensity they were used to before. Patients will need to work up to longer runs slowly to get their body and tendons used to the movement again. It's also important for individuals to check in with themselves throughout their runs and other exercises. If they're starting to feel pain in their tendons, it's time to stop.
