Todd Herremans Foot Injury

It has been a long football season for the Philadelphia Eagles and its about to get even longer for them. The latest an injury news for them is Todd Herremans. Herremans has a rare injury where he dislocated the cuboid bone and dislocated the peroneal tendons while doing this. The foot has many different bones, ligaments, and joints.



The cuboid bone as seen in the picture is located on the outside part of the foot. The peroneal tendons run along the side of this bone and help to control the outward movement of the foot. 


Team Doctors are still deciding on what to do for him. Whether to perform surgery to fix the dislocation or place him in a CamWalker. 

It is always important to know when to call a Podiatrist for any injuries that you may suffer. Pain is not normal, and if you are experiencing it, dont delay!
