Achilles Tendon – Cause and Treatment Overview

🔍 What Is the Achilles Tendon?

The Achilles tendon is the thick band of tissue connecting your calf muscles to your heel bone (calcaneus). It is the strongest tendon in your body and is essential for walking, running, and jumping.

⚠️ Common Causes of Achilles Tendon Issues

1. Overuse (Tendinitis)

Frequent in runners, athletes, or people who suddenly increase activity level.

Causes: sudden increase in intensity or duration, poor footwear, tight calf muscles.

2. Tendinosis

Chronic degeneration from repetitive stress, without inflammation.

Common in older adults or those with long-term strain.

3. Tendon Rupture

Sudden snap or tear, usually during sports or a fall.

Feels like a kick to the back of the leg, followed by difficulty walking.

4. Biomechanical Issues

Flat feet, poor gait/posture, or leg length difference can stress the tendon.

5. Other Factors

Poor warm-up/stretching

Inappropriate footwear

Tight calf muscles

Certain medications (e.g., fluoroquinolone antibiotics or steroids)

💊 Treatment Options

1. Conservative (Non-surgical)

For tendinitis or mild tendinosis:

*Rest – Stop activities that cause pain.

*Ice – 15–20 minutes several times daily.

*Compression & Elevation – Helps with swelling.

*Footwear – Supportive shoes or orthotics.

*Heel lifts – Reduce strain on the tendon.

*Stretching & Strengthening Exercises

*Eccentric calf raises (very effective).

*Gentle calf stretches.

2.Massage Therapy

Deep tissue or cross-friction massage may help circulation and healing.

3.Physiotherapy

Guided rehab, ultrasound, dry needling, or shockwave therapy.

4. Medications

NSAIDs (e.g., ibuprofen) for pain and inflammation.

5. Advanced Therapies

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) injections

Shockwave therapy (ESWT)

6. Surgical

Only if rupture occurs or chronic degeneration fails conservative treatment.

Involves tendon repair or debridement.

🛡️ Prevention Tips

Warm up before activity

Gradually increase intensity

Wear proper footwear

Regularly stretch calves and hamstrings

Strengthen ankle and foot muscle

A pinched nerve is a damaged or compressed nerve. It develops when a nerve root is injured or inflamed. The nerve root is the part where a nerve branches off from the spinal cord.

A pinched nerve in the neck may feel like pins and needles. It might also cause pain and weakness in the shoulder, arm, or hand.

Exercises for a C7 pinched nerve (cervical radiculopathy) focus on reducing pressure on the nerve and improving neck and arm mobility.



Common symptoms include:

●pins and needles
