I did my achilles, it’s a horrible injury and was brutal to get calf muscle and achilles working together again |
Currently suffering from tendinitis and have been for months ,it flares up then subsides but it's a definite something to slow you up. |  |

you will need frictions - a massaging of the achilles .quite forcefully done in order to break the scar tissue down . Tendonitis is a symptom of a build up of scar tissue -other treatment could be ultrasound and stretching if this doesn;t cure it it will have to be the knife I am afraid .

Thanks for posting this, when you say scar tissue I assume this occurred after an injury ? I can't recall having had one , my wife is also having the same problem but she's never been particularly physically active. At my age I may just see if it settles down ( as my doctor so informatively told me ). | |

In my case I got tendonitis through wearing unsuitable running shoes . I bought a pair of running shoes (it was a long time ago now so products like these have evolved for the better ) by a leading brand . I did road running as a way of keeping fit. Over time I noticed that I was getting progressively more pain in the mornings after . The pain was in the achilles of both legs and I had to do 10 mins every morning of gastrocnemius (calf muscle)stretching before I was able to walk properly . I was advised by a knowledgable friend that it was due to running in shoes with a high heel tab that in the course of jogging was causing a small but significant amount of friction to the back of the achilles .
Over time this caused an accumulation of scar tissue in the sheaths of the tendons. I had frictions (vigorous massaging of the tendon to break down scar tissue) and ultrasound which helped but did not cure the problem entirely . Needless to say I binned the running shoes and then went to see a consultant who told me it would have to be surgery . This was late1980's so my memory of it is a bit vague . I had 3 ops I think , 2 initially , 1 on each leg but for some reason had to have another . I think it was because I had a partial tear of one of the tendons . The consultant surgeon was a man named Pinfold and he was very good .
Anyway after the surgery I spent a fair time on crutches with the back of both achilles stitched and gradually with physio I regained full fitness . I have had no problems since .
The op involves opening the lower achilles and removing the scar tissue ie paring it so that it is able to run smoothly through the achilles sheath .
Check your running shoes if they are high at the back- GET RID . Get some advice from a seasoned runner . Footwear is very important
A test I was told - take the shoe one hand on the toes end the other at the heel .Twist it like getting water from a wet towel .If it twists easily its no good . If its very difficult to twist its a good shoe . Also make sure the sole is sufficiently shock absorbent - again get some expert advice / product reviews .
As with anything thats not working properly persisting with it will eventually lead to breakdown - that could mean a partially torn achilles or a completely torn one.
BTW there will be no warning - it will just snap .
See if the tendonitis improves over time do swimming or low impact instead for a period.
Maybe look at your shoes even if your wife hasnt been particularly active if she is wearing footwear that is causing small amounts of friction to the achilles area it will eventually cause a problem. | | | |

You make a good point.
I remember a physiocrats advising me to slash the heel part off the trainer shoe so as not to rub the Achilles
I have plenty of scar tissue in all sorts of places
Makes you wonder if sport or exercise is worth it | |

These loans should only be used as backup to existing players coming on as subs when we no other options until they prove they are better than what we have.It took Guehi over six months to get up to speed and we were fortunate to have him for further 12 months that doesn't happen very with.loans.
Get Ruben in but also starting playing in a style that prevents these muscle injuries, it does seem as if we expect our players to be both Olympic, sprinters and long distance runners which they cannot be, you have to treat players differently within a team otherwise your injury list just grows.
We need more depth but is a player coming back from injury the answer | | | |

if he passes the medical should be ok has had a full pre season only thing is are we possibly going for him instead of the Trialist or do we go for both?
we need another centre back deffinatly along with an attacking midfielder and at least 1 striker, and to be honest what i saw yesterday i would move heaven and earth to get Rushworth back | | | |

He3'd be a fine signing for us I think, although was it mentioned that he had attitude issues?
Last thing we need is another one of those. | |
