Achilles Tendinopathy

Understanding Achilles Tendinopathy

Achilles tendinopathy is a condition affecting the Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel bone. It commonly develops gradually through repetitive loading or increased physical activity and may cause pain, stiffness and reduced performance during walking, running or exercise.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does Achilles tendinopathy take to improve?

Recovery timescales vary depending on the severity of the condition and individual circumstances. Your clinician will discuss realistic expectations following your assessment.

Will I need a scan?

Not always. Imaging is only arranged where your clinician feels it is likely to provide useful information to support diagnosis and treatment planning.

Can this be managed without surgery or injections?

Many patients improve through physiotherapy, rehabilitation and gradual progression of activity. Your clinician will discuss all appropriate treatment options based on your assessment.
