In February I noticed that my left ankle was clicking a bit on the outside lateral bony part of my ankle. I got an MRI and turns out I had a small tear in the peroneus brevis and not subluxation. It was still surprising I had a tear since I had no pain while running, walking, or any activity. The main symptoms I experienced was some ankle stiffness and the sole of my foot felt stiff when I tried to point my foot. Even though it's not related to the peroneal tendons it seemed like it was also hard to lift my toes.

It doesn't say on my results how big the tear was but my doctor thought that I could fix it with 8 sessions of shockwave. I have gone through all 8 treatments and there is a lot of improvement and the bottom of my foot doesn't feel so stiff. While I was getting shockwave I did not run at all after 4 sessions I started doing some PT exercises and biking. It's also possible to move my toes now and I have a greater range of motion during ankle circles. However I can still feel the tendons moving over each other in a louder way than my good ankle.

It's been 3 weeks since my last shockwave treatment and I still feel the tendons snapping over each other and the ankle is still a bit stiff. Should I get another MRI to see if the tear is still there? Has anyone heard of any cases that shockwave was able to heal a tendon tear? This has been the longest time off I have had to deal with and I just want to fix this so I've been afraid to start running or do anything if my tendon is actually still torn.

MRI Results
There is superficial fraying and low to moderate grade partial thickness tearing of the inframalleolar peroneus brevis tendon which reconstitutes at the level of the anterior calcaneal body.
Low to moderate grade partial thickness tear of the peroneus brevis tendon throughout the hindfoot from the fibular tip to the anterior calcaneal body, with moderate common peroneal and both peroneus brevis and longus tenosynovitis.
