You might have heard of it and some might even be suffering from it. Achilles Tendonitis involves the Achilles tendon which is located around the back of your ankle, it is the strong fibrous tissue that connects your calf muscles and your heel bone. Your Achilles tendon enables you to stand, move, walk, run, jump, and be on your feet.
Doing intense physical activities or over-stretching your Achilles tendon will cause stress and result in inflammation. This inflammation causes pain known as Achilles Tendonitis. Achilles Tendonitis causes pain from light to excruciating ache from above the back of your heel to the back of your ankles.
