Introduction[edit | edit source]
The ankle is a crucial joint to acknowledge in the context of dance injuries because it is the connection between the leg and the foot that establishes lower limb stability. It is one of the most commonly injured body areas in dance.[1] Incidences of injury to the ankle-foot complex scale from 27% to 49% of total injuries in ballet, modern, flamenco, and tap dancers.[1][2] Dancer’s tendonitis is also called Flexor Hallucis Longus tendonitis. This condition is characterized by an injury to the FHL tendon with subsequent degeneration and inflammation.
In dancers, injury to the FHL is usually caused by the repetitive movement caused by changing position from a plié position to a relevé position. (Plié is a French term meaning to bend, relevé, is a ballet term meaning “raised.” The term relevé explains the action when a dancer rises up on their toes).[3] This action produces a force that is ten times the dancer's body weight. Bio-mechanically, a limited plantarflexion movement may lead to a prolonged pronated foot position when pushing off during the Propulsion Phase which can lead to FHL tendonitis.
