The achilles tendon is the co-joined tendon of the Gastrocnemius and the soleus muscle which form the thickened tendon at the back of the leg as it inserts into the calcaneous (heel bone). This structure becomes inflamed and damaged from a variety of mechanical forces: pronation (inward tilting of the heel) or supination (outward tilting of the heel); excessive weight; over-use, such as running or tennis or other sport activities; and sometimes metabolic problems, such as diabetes arthritis or even gout can play a major role in inflammation of the achilles tendon. However, most achilles tendon problems are mechanical in nature.

Symptoms Diagnosis Expected Duration ... Additional Info What Is It? Tendons are tough, flexible, fibrous bands of tissue that connect muscles to bones. When tendons become inflamed, irritated or suffer microscopic tears, the condition is called tendonitis. Tendons can be small, like the delicate, tiny bands in the hands, or large, like the heavy, ropelike cords that anchor the calf or thigh muscles. In most cases, tendonitis happens for one of two reasons:

Department of Family Practice, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada V6T 1Z3 Tendonitis such as that of the Achilles, lateral elbow, and rotator cuff tendons is a common presentation to family practitioners and various medical specialists. Most currently practicing general practitioners were taught, and many still believe, that patients who present with overuse tendonitis have a largely inflammatory condition and will benefit from anti-inflammatory medication. Unfortunately this dogma is deeply entrenched. Ten of 11 readily available sports medicine texts specifically recommend non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for treating painful conditions like Achilles and patellar tendonitis despite the lack of a biological rationale or clinical evidence for this approach.

Pribut, DPM Symptoms and Causes: the biggest contributor to chronic achilles tendonitis is ignoring pain Achilles tendonitis is the bane of many runners. You should not allow this to turn into a chronic and troubling malady leading to moans about how it will never end, contributing to roadsides strewn with air cushioned clad runners all wh ice packs attached to their heels. First, we will review some basic information about the achilles tendon. The achilles tendon is the connection between the heel and the most powerful muscle group in the body. This has long been known as a site prone to disabling injury. Forces up to 12 times body weight (9kN) may arise during sprinting. This tendon is named after Achilles, who according to myth was protected from wounds by being dipped in a magical pond by his mother. She held him by the heel, which was not immersed, and later died by an arrow wound in his heel. Although obviously, injuries to this area must have been known for more than 2,000 years, it was first reported in the medical literature by Ambroise Paré only 400 years ago.

Dr. Stephen M. Pribut's Sport Pages Sports Medicine Home Chess Shoes Comprehensive Site Listing ... Office Iliopsoas Tendonitis: The Great Masquerader One Cause Of Groin Pain by Stephen M. Pribut, DPM Groin pain can be caused by many different entities, from those as innocuous as a "pulled adductor muscle" to something as serious as a femoral neck stress fracture. An excellent review article appears in the January 2000 issue of Physician and Sports Medicine . Because of the possibility of significant other problems here, prolonged pain in this area should be examined by an orthopedist and at the least x-rays should be taken. Some of the other problems that occur here include Slipped Capital Epiphysis, avulsion fractures, osteitis pubis, adductor tendonitis, and hernia. Iliopsoas tendonitis is an under reported and under diagnosed clinical problem. A study (Donald J. Rose, MD, department of orthopaedic surgery, Hospital for Joint Diseases)in ballet dancers performed in 1997 and presented at the AAOS Meeting in a poster presentation http://www.aaos.org/wordhtml/97news/dance1.htm showed this to be a significant finding in ballet dancers. Besides ballet dancers iliopsoas tendonitis can occur in runners, hurdlers, high jumpers and many other athletes. The diagnosis is often missed and often no significant therapeutic measures are recommended besides rest. A better strategy will be discussed here.

Twenty-five patients with typical tension myositis of the neck, upper back, and shoulder were treated by either electroacupuncture (for up to a period of three weeks) or physiotherapy (for up to six weeks). Fourteen patients (93.3%) recovered completely following electroacupuncture treatment, while ten patients (90.9%) recovered completely in response to conventional physiotherapy treatment.

Injuries links Achilles tendonitis - the BIG Five - the 5 most common running injuries Achilles tendonitis Definition : Inflammation of the Achilles tendon.The Achilles is the large tendon connecting the two major calf muscles, gastrocnemius and soleus, to the back of the heel bone. Under too much stress, the tendon tightens and is forced to work too hard. This causes it to become inflamed (that is tendinitis), and, over time, can produce a covering of scar tissue, which is less flexible than the tendon. If the inflamed Achilles continues to be stressed, it can tear or rupture. Symptoms: Dull or sharp pain anywhere along the back of the tendon, but usually close to the heel. limited ankle flexibility redness or heat over the painful area a nodule (a lumpy build-up of scar tissue) that can be felt on the tendon a cracking sound (scar tissue rubbing against tendon) with ankle movement. Causes: Tight or fatigued calf muscles, which transfer the burden of running to the Achilles. This can be due to poor stretching, rapidly increasing distance, or over-training excessive hill running or speed work, both of which stress the Achilles more than other types of running.

In the last two years, the only weekends I've gone without riding came when I was traveling and had no bike. Or when I was in bed with the flu. This is not necessarily a bad thing. There are far fewer weeds in the garden, and a bunch of other necessary chores have been completed. And my knee feels a lot better. But I'm still jonesing for a ride. I'm going to the doctor tomorrow. Posted by John Fleck at April 17, 2005 12:50 PM Comments Comments Comments
