    Re: Tibialis Anterior Hernation

    This sounds rather abnormal to me. Have you had any muscle biopsy or nerve conduction tests or full blood tests to ascertain why this is happening? Any chance you could attach a photo showing the situation when it is 'herniated'.

    Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately i cant send a picture of the herniations because they don't always come up and are not present all the time. They are shaped dome like, raised 5-10mm and are 30mm in diameter. I have never had a muscle biopsy, blood tests or nerve conduction test. Could I ask what these might rule out if they may be a requirement? In cold weather or when i have had a brisk walk or go running, its a greater effort to achieve dorsi-flexion of the feet during gait because the compartmental pressure of the tibialis anterior is compromised.
    Many thanks for your time.
