Tarsal tunnel syndrome is the compression due to irritation or damage of a crucial nerve that runs from your ankle to the foot. The condition develops after overusing your feet, straining the ankle, or developing diabetes or arthritis. Since tarsal tunnel syndrome is irritation or damage you need to be gentle with yourself, particularly, when taking on tarsal tunnel exercises. It is best to try conservative methods, but once they fail, a podiatrist may suggest tarsal tunnel release through tarsal tunnel syndrome surgery.
