I'm tall and my legs hang off the edge of the recliner but my calf is supported on the edge of the footrest, however my feet point downward. Can this position cause Achilles pain & stiffness?

I have stiffness in the "upper" part of the tendon. Actually where the gastrocnemius muscle arch begins. Is it still achilles tendinopathy or something else?

My insertional Achilles tendon issue came from constant irritation from my figure skate pushing on my heel. Stopped wearing my skate 6 months ago, went through PT twice, heel lifts, orthotics, anti inflammatory meds, stopped running, skating, and ballet. 11 months of this issue, i am having surgery in July!

This is by far the best and most nuanced guide I have stumbled across. My Achilles rehab is now on track again. The goal is to once again conquer the Ironman distance. Not this year and probably not even next year but 2026 🙂

I saw 2 doctors, one of them was a podiatrist & you have educated me more than they both did. Two different diagnosis and no relief. I'm sure it's all similar treatments but this explanation puts me a little at ease. Thank you. I appreciate you.

Currently 2 weeks post op. How long would you recommend until can play competitive golf again?

Thank you for this video ❤

Thank you so much, this has been incredibly informative and helpful

You have good content, but you have a terrible mic. Do yourself and your listeners a favor and get a proper mic for content creation.

Is it possible to have achilles tendonitis and bursitis at the same time? I think i have both right now

… but you didn’t say anything about how to warmup your Achilles. You mentioned calf raises briefly. That’s one I guess but you missed the whole point of video based solely off the title.

How long do you have to keep wedges in your boots after an achilles partical tear

Can you recommend a balancing cushion like you showed in your video I’m 10 months post surgery

Thnk you 👋

Have you had any results using peptides? Pbc 157 and TB 500?

For insertional pain, at what week should you start stretching it again? Would ice help in the early weeks or would overall just not stretching it speed up the recovery?

Hi. I switched to a barefoot running shoe in January and immediately noticed a big difference for my toes. I have Freiburg's disease which effects the blood flow to my metatarsals and I've had much less pain since then. But on the last 3 weeks I've been experiencing bad pain in my Achilles tendons. Sometimes one side, sometimes the other, or sometimes both. It's hindering my performance. I'm not a big runner. I do CrossFit and usually only run around 1-2km at a time, around 3-4 times a week. Do you think that this recent issue could be caused by the shoes? Until that point, I hadn't had any issues in either foot with the Achilles.

Hello! I really appreciate your content. Your videos have helped me get rid of my years long symptoms from achilles tendinopathy. Unfortunately, 5 days ago I aggravated it while slightly had to walk faster. It was pretty sore afterward. However, 3 days ago while carefully walking around a park I once again went to walk a bit faster without thinking and felt a little pop in my achilles. Fortunately it did not rupture. The tendon is still attached. But now it hurts worst than before and it is painful to to push off from my toes from a standing position. Oddly, I can still do seated calf raises with some weight. My question is, I have noticed you don't mention wearing a boot for partial tears. Do you find that heel lifts are enough support the healing phase of a partial tear? Right now heel lifts are all I am doing for support.

I have a wedding in 2 months after surgery. Is it possible to be able to walk?

It only hurt at the insertion , and most painful when i wake up in morning

I have insertional tendin rupture from Moto accedent and i had surgery of 5 weeks with a cast as doctors said in the aurgery they used Screw supporter that had attached on the insertional tendon and and heel bone , so i am a remote area no physiotherapist, some one could support the next protocol and the physiotherapy needs , i am so appreciated if would help that matters????

Hey, so I haven't had money to get a session with you guys, but my foot bursitis calmed down. Thanks for your video. I have one other question if once I start increasing load exercises, can it go away permanently. I'm still scared to do anything right now besides basic mobility training so it doesn't get stiff. There aren't enough videos, and the paper reviewed paper I tried to read costs 20-40$. Thank you again. Im just discouraged if I will be ever able to do high impact things again even if I get the muscles and tendons around my foot stronger. I will soon be seeing a sports physical therapist soon just got my insurance card.

This is simply general running warm-up, nothing new

I think this is one of the best channels for physical rehabilitation on YT. And this woman, in particular is both knowledgeable and reassuring. I think one of the worst aspects of injury is the thought (worry) that an injury will never heal. This lady helps resolve that 'psychological' component. I'm very grateful. Thank you. 👍❤

Loved !

WHOA! THIS PERSON ACTUALLY HAS A DEEP UNDERSTANDING OF FOOT AND SHOES AND PHYSICAL THERAPY!!!! ID FLY TO UR COUNTRY TO SEE U

My mistake was to run at exactly the same Easy/z2 pace when returned to running which trigerred a flare-up and a big setback. The key is to go zone 1 or even slower and monitor the morning pain/stiffness in the 24hr recovery cycle

Great video and explanation of heel bursitis. It is exactly what I have experienced for months - it was caused and exascerbated at work by the constantly getting on and off a tug hundreds of times a day to load and unload oversize items onto various carousels at the airport. The heel stretches I have been doing were not helping so I will cease these until the bursitis is better. Many many thanks.

Im taking levofloxacin 500mg for 10 days im also taking cyclosporine for my aplastic anemia treatment

That was a great video with very helpful information. I was attempting to diagnose the pain I have been feeling and there was no difference between pinching the Achilles on either side. However when I lightly apply a massage gun (very lightly) to back of the tendon there is a decent amount of pain. Zero pain on the other side. This is an older overuse injury from hiking too much and continues to come back. It fits most of the descriptions for tenonitis, but I'm curious if you think it could be something different given the self diagnosis technique?

Thank you so much for the video I am a fast bowler and have pain while landing the front foot but I can do sprinting without any pain

How long for physical therapy just to walk at work

How many weeks, from start to finish are you in physical therapy, from Achilles tendon surgery

I've been looking around for what to do after an Achilles Tendon rupture reconstruction. This is by far the best one yet. All in one video and not divided into too many videos. I understand some videos were more detailed about each week. But they're more specific for that patient's case. You explained for a multitude of cases 🤣 Which answered all I needed to know. I'm just about 2+ weeks post surgery. They'll put me in a Boot probably by week 3 or 4. Since my surgery was a bit complicated since mine was a Neglected Achilles Tendon rupture lol 🤣 I've already set that I won't be doing hard sports for 6 months and would probably be just doing light work for 4-9 months. Definitely set no dorsiflexion until month 6 then 🤣 But we'll see how things progress. Glad you included it at the 12+ week mark 🤣 Something to look forward to every week. Thanks again for the video. Saved this so I can look back at it 🤣

Thank You for tihis video. I will call one of your consultant with my individual case. One queston that can help others: Could the hyperbaric chamber help? I guess it promotes the growth of collagen aside other benefits.

Very many thanks Alison for your most welcome reminder of the importance of progressing my lengthy exercise programme to return to comfortable walking. My left heel tendonosis came completely out of the blue but as a 78 year old, 70 Kg male, after 18 months of benefitting well from your invaluable videos my recovery had frustratingly plateaued at I would guess about 85%. But after your reminder I firstly added one 4Kg then after 3 weeks two 4Kg weights to my backpack before doing my routine single leg heel raises and progress was thankfully resumed... It's probably now nearing 98% - probably even better if I had the courage to return to the longer distance walking I had previously taken in my stride for many years!

Great information!

Excellent video, thank you so much!

I dont run or jog, yet ive have archilles pain in heel several times a year.nit just comes on and pain lets up in a week. The painnis awful like a knife stuck in back of heel. I stretch and ice but nothing, take advil ..nothing.

Thank you for the information!😁 Also, as a footballer, once I hit something like 2-3 sets of 60s side to side single leg pogos would I be ready to sprint and even play once again? If, due to a lot of activity a few days ago, my Achilles starts being just a little bit painful, should I rest for the rest of the week or just avoid my plyos?

👉 Here are two useful TENS units for Achilles tendonitis available on Amazon: ✅ MEDVICE: geni.us/0P1GK ✅ Belifu: geni.us/kDhuGt If you buy anything via these links, we may get a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Great advice thanks

Thank you. This provided some clarity in how I should be approaching my treatment

I think my Tens will stay in the closet for treating my Achilles tendinitis.

The middle portion of the achilles is a bubble and sore what should I do

I really appreciate your videos. I have been struggling with achilles tendinopathy since December. Still not feeling I can get back to running. Have had a session with one of the physios at treat my achilles. What I can't manage is getting the strength training right to get me back to running. Also very interested to know what your opinion is of the compression boots for achilles recovery? Thanks

In the study, what is the "slowed down" group, and what is the "traditional" group mean? I was assuming traditional was going slower with the weight bearing, etc., but slowed down sounds the same.

How different would recovery from a slightly different procedure look: Haglund’s recision, removal of bone spurring and retrocalcaneal bursitis, and debridement and reattachment of the Achilles (no rupture/tear)? Safe to assume that since no rupture, the recovery process will proceed a bit more quickly?

Thank you! I just had left heel surgery for Haglunds Deformity / Insertional Achilles Tendinosis. I am a 65 yr old athletic person. This gives me a solid understanding of what I should expect regarding PT and expectations moving forward. My mind wants to rush the process, but your explanation was VERY clear on why I need to “pump the brakes” and be patient for long term results. Thank you again!

hii , how come numbness shoots through the outer side of my achilles tendon on touch ?
