Got pain at the base of your heel when walking, running or jumping? It could be Achilles Tendinopathy. 🦶
Achilles Tendinopathy occurs when the Achilles tendon becomes overloaded and the tissue begins to break down. It's a common condition in both active people and those who are on their feet a lot throughout the day.
Pain typically develops gradually and can range from a dull ache to sharp discomfort that makes everyday movement difficult. Left untreated, it tends to worsen over time and become significantly harder to manage. 😬
The good news is that with the right assessment and a progressive loading program, most people recover well and return to full activity. 💪
At West Lakes Physio, we can assess your Achilles, identify what's driving the problem and build a rehab plan to get you back on your feet properly.
