Treatment and Prevention
Injuries are diagnosed by a thorough physical evaluation. Often the doctor will order an MRI to confirm the diagnosis. Achilles tendon treatment will involve rest, physical therapy, and in some cases surgery.
However, various preventative measures can be taken to avoid these injuries.
The Achilles tendons are thick and powerful bands of fibrous tissue. They connect your calf muscles to your heel bones. The tendons help you walk, run and jump. And that means they are under a lot of stress, making injuries to the Achilles tendons common. Foot Healthcare Associates can help you determine what Achilles Tendon Treatments are best for you.
If you have any questions regarding Achilles tendon treatments, please contact one of our offices located in four convenient service locations: Southfield /Bingham Farms, Novi, Howell, and livonia.
