Blue -- It took a long time for my ankle tendonitis (peroneal and tibial tendons) to get better. It was bad enough that I couldn't walk without pain for about a month (I was limping, actually---even with prescription strength naproxen). Wearing Dansko clogs to work helped a lot --- I wore them with skirts. I also wore a brace that was compressive and helped with the swelling. I injured it in mid-June and wasn't feeling decent until mid-August. Even though I've returned to normal activity, I have to be very careful. It occasionally will ache.

It's a terrible injury. It will get better eventually.

Feel free to pm me. In the meantime, sending lots of healing karma your way.
