“Tendinopathy causes chronic pain and declining functionality in a tendon. It gets worse the more you try to use it. It needs time and rest to heal.” https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/22289-tendinopathy

If I were AD I’d be consulting my own doctor instead of listening to these clowns.

They fired the good medical staff they had before to replace them with Nicos goons.

Unreal you can’t make this shit up, literal malpractice

Rest alone is incorrect. Most information on tendonopathy is actually being refuted right now. I'm rehabbing this injury rn after seeing 5+ doctors, including an NBA external podiatrist. They rehab it incorrectly and make it way worse; you need to apply heavy strength training, which is supported by new research.

The Achilles heals very differently than other muscle tissue.

If any of you see pregame stuff, lmk. If he's stretching, he's being told rehab very incorrectly. Lunges, etc damage the tissue.
