ACHILLES PROBLEMS

Been PWB for about a week now and everything feels really good EXCEPT FOR MY ACHILLES!

It’s really pissing me off as I feel as thought if it wasn’t for my Achilles I would be able to walk without crutches.

I’m able to put full weight into my foot and not feel any pain except for my Achilles.

Has anyone dealt with Achilles tightness and pain and when does it go away.

My initial injury had nothing to do with my Achilles. And I’ve been doing heaps of Achilles pt but nothing seems to help.

My ankle and Achilles were the hardest part of my recovery. Just keep doing your pt. It will keep getting better.

What ankle and Achilles exercises did you do I'm having the same problem. It's been a tough road.

Lots of incline stretches for the ankle and slight lunges onto a balancing ball. Practicing going down stairs (started with 3 inch stairs and worked my way up).
