Prophylaxis
A peroneal tendon syndrome can often be avoided by wearing adequate footwear and the patient should warm up sufficiently before exercise. Jerky movements should also be avoided and the patient should try to adapt his performance to his existing abilities. In addition, even during hard training phases, it is important to take regular breaks to give the tendons the opportunity to recover and not to become permanently stressed.
Prognosis
The peroneal tendon syndrome usually has a good prognosis, as it is caused by overuse in many patients. Therefore, success can usually be achieved by an adequate therapy. However, there are also patients who suffer from chronic peroneal tendon syndrome for no apparent reason. Here it is important to take regular physiotherapy sessions in order to stress and not strain the vision in the right way.
