    Re: ankle clicking lateral malleolus

    Thankyou so much.
    I am worried sick about this due to extent of history regarding it.
    have really horrible feeling that whatever the fracture status, she may have a sublux of peroneal tendons.
    this has not been confirmed yet but i just have a gut feel from my own reading. if so this is apparently pretty rare in a child. i think it means that it cant be operated on immediately as you can with an adult and also that it is quite often recurrent with conservative physio. my daughter is desperate to continue with her dancing and performing. i did come across an idea for a fibreglass mould to allow her to continue performing which would still hold the tendons in place.

    any further ideas, please?
