Today's episode comes from one of the YouTube viewers who was watching a video called "Can I run with a split peroneal tendon?"

I was trying to explain the circumstances when you can run with a split tendon, and when you really shouldn't.

He wanted to know if his doctor could tell whether or not he needed surgery just by looking at his ankle.

“The MRI tells me I have a split tear. So, presumably as a tear in the peroneal tendon, but I don't know which one."

Can my doctor tell me if I need surgery on my peroneal tendon just by looking at my ankle?

Well, that's a great question and that's what we're talking about today on the Doc On The Run Podcast.
