Peroneal dislocation

Dislocation of the peroneal tendons

What are the Peroneal Tendons?

The tendon that runs behind the lateral malleolus (the bony bit on the outside of the ankle) is called the peroneal tendon. The tissue that holds the tendons in place can be torn by turning the ankle over (ankle sprain) this causes the tendons to slip forward over the malleolus.

If there is continued dislocations inflammation will occur. Athletes with unstable ankles are more susceptible to this injury. Often a contributing factor to this is tension in the muscle belly of Peroneal tendon. Deep tissue massage is an excellent way of identifying and releasing this.
