Have similar situation. Right at the base and just inside the heel. It’s been 2 months. Initial physio aggravated it, I’m in turkey. Language and quality professionals is a problem. I’m having to try to heal myself but I’ve now missed half the season here. It’s depressing and I’ve let it affect me emotionally to the point I’ve gained a few kgs 🤦🏻‍♂️

I hit a shot at football last week and I was in so much pain 🔥🔥

How long it took to Heals

[@nickhumph]

Hey Tim, great video! I have the same issue. When you say to rest for a week, what kind of exercise would you still allow? Cheers

[@physiorehab]

Upper body, core etc. rest the lower body

[@nickhumph]

@@physiorehab Cheers Tim! Also you mentioned at 5:40 that you'd show a progress update in 2-weeks to gauge if he's ready or not. Wondering where I could find that video? thx

[@physiorehab]

@@nickhumph no update sorry

[@GeorgeLista]

Had the same question. No worries then. Thanks for the first video anyway. It’s the only video I’ve found online anywhere for 2 months since I got injured that is close to what I have. ​@@physiorehab

Thanks TIm very informative. What are your thoughts on some therapists these days saying that there are no such things as "Knots" or "adhesions" in soft tissue structures. Thanks

[@physiorehab]

Better to listen to surgeons who open people up and see it for themselves

[@carlreid9008]

What did you say to help flush out the inflammation?

[@dewyrugby6289]

I sprained my ankle 5 weeks ago and have had some mild pain around my Achilles pain since the start along with the other symptoms . Is this normal ? Or should I get reassessed

[@physiorehab]

You might be either doing too much on it or not enough. Perhaps have the physio take another look

[@marthaoregel7261]

I have 2.8 rupture since May 34, 2021 I am able to walk with a slidely limping, squat, bend my knee to the wall with no pain. Is it true that the tendon is like a rubberband ? What are the consequences in a long term if I don’t do the surgery. I am 51 years old. Would I be ok if I don’t do surgery? Please tell me if I do need a surgery or not? Thank you so much.

[@physiorehab]

If it’s healed up ok then you just need to work in long term strengthening

[@fbi8498]

Should I do this exercise if even walking is hard & painful for me?

[@physiorehab]

Perhaps follow my rehab program for the best guidance for what to do: physiorehab.com/rehab-programs-achilles-injury-surgery-rehab

[@iamforthewin6825]

hey tim I have a question, after being able to do elevated calf raises with weights on one leg, do you think I can return sports if I have no pain the day after those exercises

[@physiorehab]

Hopping 30 times on the spot with no symptoms and equal to other side is a good gauge of return to sport

[@iamforthewin6825]

@@physiorehab do you mean hopping normally or on one leg? and also do i wait a day to see if I have any symptoms

[@abdullaabbasi3732]

Hi Tim, I sprained my ankle about a month ago. rested it for 2 weeks, then resumed normal basketball activities to later experience achillies pain. Any tips?

[@physiorehab]

Have a look at the Achilles program as it covers a lot of ankle issues too. Physiorehab.com

[@HugoGonzalez-hy2rh]

What kind of cream do you recommend ?

[@physiorehab]

?

[@analyticalmindset]

@@physiorehab I think he's asking a out which anti inflammatory cream did you use

[@24Dinho]

I think I have this same exact issue

[@physiorehab]
