I'm having PRP injections this week for chronic Achilles issues. Anyone have any history with this procedure and how long can I expect to be unable to train.
Six weeks ago I felt a tug on my achilles during a treadmill run. I had really been finding my stride the last few weeks ramping up mileage again for the running season.
Achilles Tendonitis is one of the most common running injuries due to overtraining. In this video, a sports medicine doctor diagnoses and provides a treatment plan.
I've seen posts on chronic achilles pain, but nothing on recovery from surgery. I don't know the difference between the good pain and the bad when training.
Do you have any experience with Synvisc One knee injections? After my second scope the doctor has recommended this for the osteoarthritis that has developed in my knee.
I am 52 year old female with chronic (over two months) pain over left achilles tendon that worsens with running. On exam, my left achilles is tender to direct palpation.
I've been told I have laxity in my tendons which sets me up to be more prone to overuse injuries. Do you have any suggestions on what I can do to eliminate my chronic achilles pain?
