The Importance of Proper Care for Achilles Tendonitis

Achilles Tendonitis is a common condition characterized by the inflammation of the Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel bone. It is often caused by overuse, inappropriate footwear, or sudden increase in physical activity. If left untreated, Achilles Tendonitis can lead to chronic pain and reduced mobility.

At Regency Square Care Center, we understand the impact of Achilles Tendonitis on your daily life. Our specialized night splint is carefully designed to provide optimal support, allowing your tendon to heal while you sleep. With its gentle stretching and cushioning properties, our night splint effectively reduces pain and inflammation, facilitating the recovery process.

Understanding Achilles Tendonitis Symptoms

Recognizing the symptoms of Achilles Tendonitis is crucial for early intervention and effective treatment. Common symptoms include:

  • Pain and stiffness: You may experience pain and stiffness around the Achilles tendon, particularly during physical activity or in the morning.
  • Tenderness: The affected area may be tender to touch, with localized swelling or warmth.
  • Thickening of the tendon: In some cases, the Achilles tendon may thicken and develop nodules.
  • Difficulty walking: Achilles Tendonitis can make walking or running challenging, impacting your mobility.

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is essential to seek medical attention promptly. Delaying treatment may lead to further complications and prolonged recovery time.

Effective Treatment Options for Achilles Tendonitis

Regency Square Care Center provides a range of treatment options tailored to your specific needs. Our skilled healthcare professionals will assess your condition and recommend the most suitable course of action. Treatment for Achilles Tendonitis may include:

  1. Rest and immobilization: Taking a break from activities that aggravate the condition is crucial for recovery. Immobilization through the use of a night splint or casting may be recommended.
  2. Physical therapy: Targeted exercises and stretches can help strengthen the affected tendon and restore its flexibility.
  3. Orthotic devices: Customized shoe inserts or orthotic devices can provide additional support and cushioning, reducing stress on the Achilles tendon.
  4. Medication: In some cases, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may be prescribed to alleviate pain and reduce inflammation.
  5. Surgery: If conservative treatments fail to improve the condition, surgical intervention may be necessary. Our skilled surgeons perform advanced procedures to repair and strengthen the Achilles tendon.
