Achilles tendonitis is a common condition characterized by inflammation and irritation of the Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel bone. This can result in pain, stiffness, and swelling in the back of the heel or lower calf. Our experienced podiatrists are skilled in diagnosing and treating Achilles tendonitis using state-of-the-art techniques tailored to your individual needs.

Our treatment options for Achilles tendonitis include:

Comprehensive evaluation and diagnosis using advanced imaging studies.

Rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) therapy to reduce pain and inflammation.

Physical therapy exercises to strengthen the Achilles tendon and surrounding muscles, improve flexibility, and promote healing.

Customized orthotic devices or shoe inserts to provide support and reduce stress on the Achilles tendon.

Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) to stimulate healing and alleviate pain in chronic cases.
