The Achilles tendon is the tendon that connects your calf muscle to the back of your heel. When your calf contracts, it pulls on this tendon to move your heel up and point your toes down. This is crucial in standing, walking, jumping, and running. WHAT IS ACHILLES TENDONITIS? When your Achilles is tight, or weak, or worked too much, it can start to develop irritation and inflammation in the tendon. If left untreated, this can progress into pain which we call Achilles tendonitis. HOW TO TREAT ACHILLES TENDONITIS If your tendon has been bothering you for less than two weeks, it should respond well to rest, ice, and anti-inflammatory medications. If it’s been more than two weeks (becoming more of a chronic issue) your treatment needs to look a little different to facilitate healing.
