Understanding Tendon Injuries

Tendons are strong, flexible cords that connect muscles to bones, enabling movement. Overuse, trauma, or underlying conditions can lead to inflammation, tears, or degeneration of these vital structures. Common tendon injuries we treat include:

  • Achilles Tendon Injury:
    • The Achilles tendon connects your calf muscles to your heel bone. Injuries can range from tendinitis (inflammation) to ruptures (tears).
    • Symptoms: Heel pain, stiffness, swelling, and difficulty pushing off with the injured foot.
    • Why choose us? We provide comprehensive care, including conservative treatments like physical therapy and orthotics, as well as advanced options when necessary.
  • Plantar Fascia Injury (Plantar Fasciitis):
    • The plantar fascia is a thick band of tissue that supports the arch of your foot. Inflammation of this tissue is a common cause of heel pain.
    • Symptoms: Heel pain, especially in the morning or after periods of rest, arch pain, and tightness.
    • Why choose us? We offer a variety of treatments, including custom orthotics, stretching protocols, and minimally invasive procedures.
  • Peroneal Tendon Injury:
    • The peroneal tendons stabilize the ankle and foot. Injuries can occur due to ankle sprains or overuse.
    • Symptoms: Pain on the outside of the ankle, swelling, weakness, and instability.
    • Why choose us? Our expertise in biomechanics allows us to address the root cause of your peroneal tendon issues.
  • Posterior Tibial Tendon Injury (PTTD):
    • The posterior tibial tendon supports the arch of the foot. Dysfunction or rupture of this tendon can lead to flatfoot.
    • Symptoms: Pain on the inside of the ankle, swelling, flattening of the arch, and difficulty walking.
    • Why choose us? We offer specialized treatments to support and strengthen the posterior tibial tendon, preventing further arch collapse.
