Don’t Let a Tendon-cy for Procrastination be Your Achilles’ Heel
Another
common foot-related ailment is Achilles tendinitis. Often triggered by frequent
workouts that strain, or inflame, the tendon, which connects the heel bone to
the calf muscles, it causes pain, stiffness, and/or swelling. If you have these
indications, which are usually worse in the morning, and after exercise, icing
the area for 20 minutes, several times per day, and taking a non-steroidal,
anti-inflammatory, OTC pain reliever, such as ibuprofen, can help.
However,
if symptoms persist, let us devise a customized treatment that will have you up
and running like new again. But call us right away, because delaying treatment
can allow the condition to degenerate; and you don’t want to let procrastination
be your Achilles’ heel!
