An Achilles tendon injury refers to any damage or harm to the Achilles tendon, a vital tendon that connects the calf muscles to the heel bone. These injuries can range from mild to severe and are common in athletes and individuals engaged in regular physical activity.
Types of Injuries[edit]
Achilles Tendinitis[edit]
Achilles tendinitis (also known as Achilles Tendonitis) is characterized by inflammation of the tendon. It typically occurs due to overuse and is marked by pain, swelling, and stiffness.
Achilles Tendon Rupture[edit]
A more severe form of injury, a rupture involves a partial or complete tear of the tendon. It often results in a sudden, sharp pain and requires immediate medical attention.
