Achilles Tendonitis

Achilles tendonitis is a common injury caused by overuse of the tendon that connects your calf muscles to your heel bone. It frequently affects runners, tennis players, and individuals who engage in repetitive or high-impact activities. Symptoms can include pain, swelling, stiffness, or tenderness at the back of the heel—especially after activity. At our podiatry clinic, we offer expert evaluation and a full range of treatment options to help relieve pain, restore mobility, and prevent further injury. Our comprehensive approach includes:

• Preventative Counseling - Guidance on activity modification and injury prevention strategies
• Specialized Home Training - Tailored stretching and strengthening exercises to support recovery
• Diagnostic Ultrasound - In-office imaging to accurately assess tendon damage and inflammation
• Shoe and Gait Analysis - Evaluation of footwear and walking patterns to identify contributing factors
• Achilles Walking Boots - Supportive bracing to reduce strain and aid in healing
• Anti-Inflammatory Medication - To manage pain and reduce swelling
• Minimally-Invasive Surgery - Advanced procedures for severe or non-responsive cases
