Tendonitis is irritation or inflammation of a tendon. Tendonitis is usually caused from repetitive motion such as sports type injuries. In an auto accident injury this would be caused from sudden or direct force applied to the area of concern.
Any mechanical friction or compression of the tendons on the top of the foot can cause extensor tendonitis. A very common cause is from over-tightened shoes. The extensor tendons are covered only by a thin, lightly-padded layer of skin.
