- Posterior tibial tendonitis refers to inflammation of the tibial tendon, which is located in the back portion of the lower leg. This condition can occur through a variety of physical activities that are either performed incorrectly or with excess. These activities can include dancing, running or swimming. This condition can also occur when there's been some type of trauma to the lower part of the body, such as a car accident. Patients that suffer from arthritis are also susceptible to posterior tibial tendonitis. One of the most common ways to acquire this condition is through improperly walking. Symptoms of posterior tibial tendonitis include: pain or edema near the arch of the foot or inner side of the ankle; pain that increases in severity as the individual rises up on the ball of the foot or when the foot is extended in the upright position; or tiredness in the foot after minimal activity. Treatment of posterior tibial tendonitis can include resting the foot, bracing or casting the foot to protect it when walking, physical therapy or in some cases, surgery.
This is hell I have my good days and bad.😔
What is the name of that brace?? with a gel support???
This is very helpful information. Thank you! Could you give me the name of the ankle support sleeve shown in the video?
Very well said. How do you tape posterior tibial Tendinitis
I hope this goes away for good. It absolutely sucks and brings down my self esteem while performing my work trade and mainly from being a father.
How do I choose a good brace on Amazon now that my inflammation has calmed down and the acute phase is over? (Thank you)
thanks..great explanation. I have this issue and going through it
Thank you for the very useful info!
Bless this man
Thank you
How do you heal it?
Thank you so much for showing this..I am in a lot of pain and currently in a boot. I will look at all these things and try them. Currently under care at a foot and ankle specialist where I live, but this ankle brace has not come up in discussion. I would definitely like to try it!
Jeannie S I have to wear braces for my feet because I was born with completely flattened feet which resulted in really bad Pttd now I have to wear braces long term
How long is long term? I am currently using the brace and orthopedic supports. I see my podiatrist in 2 weeks. I don't feel pain for now and wonder if it is indeed healing.
Did it ever heal?
Dr. Young,
How do you know when the acute phase is over? I'm not in pain, but without the boot if feels like I'm pronating and stretching it such that I feel 'internal soreness'. I'm wearing over the counter orthodics, maybe they aren't doing the job or do I need to stick with the boot.
Hello John, did you get rid of this ? I am going through the exact same thing last 6 months. OTC orthotics not really working.

Can MRI miss diagnosing posterior tibial tendonitis?
Are the chances of tendon rupture at posterior tibial tendon high from a steroid shot. This will be my first injection
Was just diagnosed and placed in a boot and on a knee scooter.
hello sir I'm having intrasubstance post tibialis rupture,
it's been a year but it's not getting healed😭
I have this problem and currently wearing a boot but it may have to have surgery it's my right ankle
I’ve had PTT for the last 4 months after my marathon. Been doing physical therapy weekly. It keeps flaring up. Does it get better?
Hello man how s your foot?, it’s been 5.5 weeks since my grade 2 sprain, last 2 weeks I ve been working on my range of motions by light exercises and the range is 85%, I also started walking in a brace recently but I feel pain on the inside of the foot, although I twisted my leg outwards. My question is - wtf is this? Why it hurts on the inside if it’s not there the injury was? Can it be just the fact that my ligaments lost their “mobility” in my 1 month of resting and now that I walk, I just “overwork” them? Like they are not in shape and that’s why it hurts. What should I do? Just continue walking and it will go always by itself? Since by all predictions I should be fine after that time, my x-ray is clean. I’m 19((
Hopefully I can compliment this a little! I'm an Australian PT who's passionate about trying to uncover the root cause of common aches and pains. I've put together a video on the broader issues I find set the Tib Post up to fail. These include things like ankle joint stiffness, tight hip rotators, weak hips, etc. Hope this helps as well! czcams.com/video/zV6bbRaNhzk/video.html
Please help me I have pain 24 hours a day
I injured my right ankle and lower right calf I thought... I just stepped in a hole while power walking..I kept pushing did my power walking for 6 miles once I stopped I iced and thought it will be better in the morning.I iced for the next week my ankle inside and outside twice its size and severe pain on inside arch..I hopped for another week thinking it get better..it didn't 3rd week I went to my podiatrist he said tibial tendon blah blah the outside heel ankle black and blue and very swollen mri ordered I was put in a soft cast with this stuff in it to bring down swelling.i was to not remove it for 5 days .I had oral steroids for a week.. I was to return last week keep a boot on and start trying to get back into orthotics but had a nasty fall didn't reinjure the foot but didn't go for follow up... still can't squat down or push back up on my toes ..I have cursed my tendon out today a few times..I think it maybe trying to give me the cold shoulder now...I still have swelling about inner and outer ankle ...strange
This is happening to me right now. Awful and I work on my feet!
Does post tib cause your foot to swell on the inner side? By above the arch? I've been battling this for months with arch pain and lateral foot pain
Yes it does
How is it now Jim. If better what did you do ? I have been suffering for last 6 months
Same I’ve had this problem for 6 months
@@Ashish-nd3xj did you get rid of it I still have it
@@toddlemoine5810 yes pretty much it's fine. I started using custom orthotics and NB 990V5 as stabilization shoe which is on the entire time I am not sleeping. Just did a 6 mile hike yesterday without any sign of pain. Will start running now. It also helps to work on anxiety and inflammation by some mental exercises, positive affirmations etc. This is all worked perfectly with me. Wish you all the best with recovery.
I have low arches, I also "like" strain my ankles, and I'm extremely athletic... ughhhh
Ive been dealing with this for about 6mths and it stinks. It only feels okay with a brace. After removing the brace it hurts. Its hurts all the time.
Have you been given special insoles to wear with special shoes?
@@tanyarenaissance8829 no i just use my massage roller to decrease the pain it has helped a whole lot
Has it gone better ? I am not in braces. Just OTC orthotics better it continues to hurt on walking.
@@Ashish-nd3xj a little bit. Ive focus massage the tendon and keeping it stretched. Comfortable socks have helped too.
@@Ashish-nd3xj : I could barely walk a year ago from this issue. I exercise my feet 2x a day, and I tape my foot. From what I've learned, it's an area of the body that heals very slowly.
I can no longer walk even 10 meters, nor can I stand after the VA did gastrocnemius recession on me. I originally went for a bunionectomy and they did this to me without my approval. Now I can’t walk because the arch collapse and causes leg length discrepancy.
This is a horrible surges d what’s worse is I did not go there for that. Their excuse was that my calves was tight.
Surgery is the only way forward! Use the boot afterwards for recovery for 1 month and the arch support for life!
I just had posterior tibial tendon surgery
How did it turn out?
It went ok, I'm like three months post op now and still in physical therapy. Walking a lot better but still have some pain and I get a red rash on my ankle when I'm on it for awhile so I'm supposed to see my surgeon regarding that but other than that I'm good
I still have issues years later from a sprain, but neither doc suggested surgery, so I was just curious.
Hope you have a good recovery. PT is important.
Thank you, I definitely wouldn't do it unless you really need to. It's a long recovery 😓 hopefully worth it in the end. It seems like it takes forever to heal from any ankle injury
I have to have ankle surgery in three days I am so scared.
Orthotics are NOT the answer. The answer is build muscle in your feet, ankle and legs. Typical American doctor. Puts newspaper over puke instead of just cleaning up the puke.
Did you ever suffer from this condition?
@@fumanboy Yes
@@BcottStudios how did you heal this problem if you don’t mind explaining, I’m currently suffering from this.
What exercises and how often and long did you do it? Im on 2 months and I have gotten worse
@@BcottStudios how often and which exercises?
