In this video, Dr. Rion Berg of the Foot and Ankle Center of Lake City describes the causes of cuboid syndrome.

The cuboid bone is found in front of the heel bone. It got its name due to its cube-like shape. The peroneal tendon which runs under the cuboid bone can become inflamed. The pain is felt beneath and behind the prominent bone on the outside of the foot. Cuboid syndrome can also cause another condition called Peroneal Tendonitis.

Certain risk factors, such as having high arches, rolling the ankle outward, having a tight calf muscle and Achilles tendon, or having a flexible flat foot that rolls excessively inward, can increase the likelihood of developing cuboid syndrome.

If you are experiencing pain beneath your foot or on the outside and not at the base of the heel, you should get evaluated by a podiatrist.
