5 Reasons A Runner Might Want Popping Peroneal Tendon Surgery
If you have popping or clicking around the outside of your ankle, do you actually need peroneal tendon surgery?
Not necessarily.
In this episode of the Doc On The Run Podcast, Dr. Christopher Segler explains the 5 reasons runners might actually consider surgery for painful popping peroneal tendons—and why many runners may not need surgery at all.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
• What the peroneal tendons actually do
• Why peroneal tendons pop or click
• When popping is actually dangerous
• The difference between painful instability and harmless clicking
• Why some split peroneal tendons heal without surgery
• The most important question runners forget to ask surgeons
• How to think about surgery from a runner’s perspective
The real goal is not simply fixing the tendon.
The goal is getting back to running.
