Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Hello: The condition you described is Achilles tendinitis, which is an inflammatory response caused by repeated trauma to the Achilles tendon. It is directly related to being overweight and frequent exercise. In treatment, during the acute phase, rest should be paid attention to. Local heat application, elevating the heel to reduce Achilles tendon tension, reducing activity, applying topical medication, and taking oral anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving drugs can promote the resolution of local inflammation. Additionally, patients can also combine local ultrasound therapy and electrical stimulation therapy for physical treatment. For severe symptoms, local closed treatment can be performed to relieve pain.
