Does anybody have any useful articles/references regarding Iselin's disease? I have an 11 year old patient that I think has this, but cannot find much literature to help me.

She has had right lateral foot pain for approximately 4 months and has a minimally enlarged styloid process on the affected foot, with pain on prolonged activity. She is a very sporty girl (Netball, Hockey, Lacrosse etc) with particularly unstable subtalar/midtarsal areas but wears ballet-style shoes with a kitten heel (half inch) to school :bang:
The styloid process is painful on palpation, with some mild tenderness around the lateral malleolus/peroneus brevis tendon.
My instinct is to deal with the instability/footwear issues and await resolution. Does anyone have any thoughts/ideas? GP reluctant to order x-ray at this stage. Incidentally, the right foot is approximately 1 size smaller than the left :confused:
Any advice gratefully received.
Ella
