Tendonitis is an inflammation or irritation of a tendon, the thick fibrous cords that connect muscles to bones. In podiatry, tendonitis commonly affects the tendons in the foot and ankle, leading to pain, swelling, and reduced mobility. Tendons are essential for movement, and when they become irritated or overused, it can cause significant discomfort and limit daily activities. Common types of tendonitis in the foot and ankle include: Achilles Tendonitis, Posterior Tibial Tendonitis, Peroneal Tendonitis, and Flexor Tendonitis.
