My daughter plays soccer, and has recently been diagnosed with exercise induced anterior compartmental sydrome. The problem is recurrent, but does not happen during every game she plays. The orthopedist we are taking her to recommends gives her two options: quit playing soccer or have the fascial release surgery. Since this is rare, and is not done often, we are very nervous about having this done. We did try the using and orthotic and some stretching exercises, but this did not help much. I've read a couple of your other replies to questions about this and notice that you recommend wearing some type of compression garment. Our surgeon tells us just the opposite and says this will only compound the problem of compression. I guess my main question is: Is there any type of intense physical therapy that may relieve this problem, or is surgery the only sure answer? Also, he was not too clear how long it would take for her to recover,i.e., rehab and be able to run at game speed again. What are the success rates for this surgery? Thanks for you advice.
