Peroneal Tendonitis Peroneal Tendonitis is a common cause of pain around the back and outer side of the foot due to inflammation, irritation or degeneration of the tendons.icro-trauma from repetitive tension on the peroneal tendons causes damage to the tendons resulting in peroneal tendonitis. There are two peroneal muscles, peroneal longus and peroneal brevis. They run down the back of the fibula through a groove on the outer side of the ankle behind the lateral malleolus.

Bunions (Hallux Valgus) Bunions may or may not cause symptoms. A frequent symptom is foot pain in the involved area when walking or wearing shoes; rest relieves this pain. A bunion causes enlargement of the base of the big toe and is usually associated with positioning of the big toe toward the smaller toes. Shoe pressure in this area can cause interment pain while the development of arthritis in more severe bunions can lead to chronic pain. Bunions that cause marked pain are often associated with swelling of the soft tissues, redness, and local tenderness. It is important to note that, in postpubertal men and postmenopausal women, pain at the base of the big toe can be caused by gout and gouty arthritis that is similar to the pain caused by bunions.

- A metatarsal stress fracture is a small hairline crack that can appear in the metatarsal bone (the long bones on the top of the foot) and is another common cause of pain on top of foot. It occurs due to repetitive strain and trauma to the metatarsals, which over-time leads to the development of a stress fracture.his triggers the inflammatory response which causes the pain and discomfort. Although this is most common in the posterior tibial tendon (more about that condition here) it can potentially occur in any of the foot tendons.

- Fractures of the heel bone, or calcaneus, can be disabling injuries. They most often occur during high-energy collisions — such as a fall from height or a motor vehicle crash. Because of this, calcaneus fractures are often severe and may result in long-term problems. The calcaneus is the most frequently fractured tarsal bone. Tarsal bone fractures account for about 2% of all adult fractures. Of these, 60% are calcaneus fractures. The heel bone is often injured in a high-energy collision where other parts of the skeleton are also injured. In up to 10% of cases, the patient can also sustain a fracture of the spine, hip, or the other calcaneus.
