The tendon pain is a symptom of the tightness of the muscle attached to the tendon. The muscle is on the outside of the shin bone and it you press on it and it is sore then this muscle needs to be released - myofascial release. Releasing this tight muscle will significantly reduce the tension on the tendon. Also wear the arch supports.

Plenty of videos on Youtube for releasing this muscle.

Thanks! I came home from work today with this exact pain. I’m very flat-footed so I’ll go check out some arch support!

This is the right spot on my foot that hurts. I stopped running for 3-4 months and got back to it. The last time I remember running was at work :/

I drive truck and I am sitting most of the day. But when I stand up to walk the upper inside of my arch feels line they are bruised. It's been like this for months.

Just went to the website, thanks for the suggestion! Been dealing with this for 5 weeks, in an AirCast boot and it was getting better and now it feels worse. So frustrating!

[FknNefFy]

Oh my gosh thank you I was about to give up everything is talking about plantar fasciitis I thought I was dying LOL thank you

[roxyislove]

Be aware! The moon boot gave me this condition. I had an avulsion to cuboid and now this as walking with moon boot put my flat foot in the worst situation than ever. Get MRI asap as well.

I have a tennis ball-sized lump on my inner left ankle every time I walk. It hurts soooo bad!

How do you feel about ankle braces? Also I feels like it's clicking and popping too. I have had pain and swelling for a year now and it hasn't healed with ice and an ankle brace. Could it be because I am working on my feet everyday?

[suzannekarlasuzara]

what if its swelling? how can I reduce the pain? can I use hot or cold compress

[xa-]

Can someone tell me what i have?
Usually when i workout, i feel a big crampy pain in my inner right foot. When i look what is happening over there i see that a vein is popping out and is clearly visuable.

[momsaidicould]

going through this right now. Vionic shoes are a good brand.

There is no selection under the Shoe List for INSIDE OF YOUR FEET AND ANKLE PAIN. Is it that I should be looking for Foot Rocker shoes?

[samuelhanma]

I have a line on the side of the foot like a stretch is that bad?

[rochelleknight]

I have pain on the side of foot right where you say that muscle attaches.  It is very tender to touch but I do not have pain up either side of the ankle.  When walking the pain sometimes goes up over the top of foot in arch area, maybe into the upper part of big toe.  Someone below said this is due to a muscle on the outside of shin.  You are showing the inside of foot and inside of ankle.  So, I'm confused.  Do I need to do release on this muscle on the outside of shin?  It not, what areas do I need to release fascia if that is an issue with this PTT?

[andrewcarr]

Thank you. my mom told me the exact same thing

[ajaybhadoria]

[lauddles]

I have pain in that exact area, but it was caused by trying to stop a soccer ball and by foot going backwards. Do you know what thismight be? THe pain is mostly next to my inner ankle bone.
