    Re: Peroneal strain?

    How are concentric/eccentric/isometric resistance of the evertors?

    How are static/dynamic/ballistic stretches of the lower limb movements?

    How is the angle of impact, landing of the forefoot, righting reaction after a drop off from a certain height (ie. jump type tests)
    Additional Comment I forgot:
    have you cleared for stress fracture? is it painful on ultrasound or tuning fork tests (good tests to do without having to do a full bone uptake scan)?
    Interesting, could you please explain this particular diagnostic.

    Hi Canuck, evertors are 5/5 on muscle testing R=L. Stretches of lower limb are all normal R=L except slight pain lower 1/3 lateral shank on inversion. On hopping her L) foot lands more on the lateral aspect of BoF, more supinated.

    As for US as diagnostic for stress #, I've read something recently but can't find the journal ref where US was better in diagnosing stress # when revealed with Wikipedia reference-linkMRI compared to tuning fork which had low specificity / sensitivity. Dose was 3 mhz, 100%, 2 W/cm2 for 30 sec. (taken from pt record where I've used this diagnostic before). Never used tuning fork so no idea about them
