Muscle sparing hip replacement uses the direct anterior approach to access the hip joint through a natural gap between muscles instead of cutting through them. This means less tissue damage, less pain after surgery, and a faster return to walking and daily activities. Most patients are up and moving within hours of the procedure and heading home the same day or the next morning. Research shows anterior approach patients stop using walkers and discontinue pain medication days sooner than those treated with traditional methods. While early recovery advantages are well supported, long-term outcomes are excellent regardless of surgical approach, making surgeon experience and proper patient selection the most important factors in achieving the best result.

Peroneal tendon subluxation is one of the most commonly misdiagnosed ankle injuries, often mistaken for a simple lateral ligament sprain. The peroneal tendons run behind the fibula and are held in place by the superior peroneal retinaculum. When this structure is damaged, the tendons slip out of their groove, causing pain, snapping, and instability on the outer side of the ankle. Because the swelling and bruising pattern closely mimics an ankle sprain, many patients go months or even years without a correct diagnosis. The key difference is pain location: sprains cause pain in front of the lateral malleolus, while peroneal tendon subluxation causes pain behind it. Left untreated, recurring subluxation leads to progressive tendon damage and chronic ankle instability. Dr. Cory Calendine, orthopedic surgeon at the Bone and Joint Institute of Tennessee, explains how this injury is diagnosed, when surgery is needed, and what patients in Franklin, Nashville, and Middle Tennessee should know about treatment and recovery.
