It is pain caused either by the Achilles tendon itself or by the thin membrane around it. Patients mostly feel the pain at maximum level when they wake up from sleep or after prolonged rest. In some cases, formations such as bead-like formations, which we call nodules, can be seen on it. The diagnosis is usually made by anamnesis and physical examination, but in some cases MRI may be required. While daily life modification and simple medical treatments are sufficient in treatment, physical therapy procedures and even surgical treatment can be performed in some stubborn cases. Surgical treatment is performed endoscopically in a closed manner using today’s technology. Most of this disease can be prevented to a great extent with simple modifications. These can be considered as paying attention to weight gain and choosing shoes and insoles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Achilles rupture is a rupture between the muscles in the calf area and the adhesion site in the heel area. It is usually seen in people over the age of 30, who do not do regular sports, overweight and engaged in sports that require heavy exercise. Generally, patients feel a sudden onset of pain in the back of the foot, as if they have been hit with a hard object in the back of the foot. While the diagnosis is mostly made by clinical examination, it may need to be supported by MRI. Conservative treatment (plaster-ankle boot) is required in partial ruptures and surgical procedure is required in total and near-total ruptures. In today’s technologies, this surgery can be performed closed through small incisions as well as open surgery. It is followed up with achilles boot after surgery. After 2 weeks, passive exercises are started. After the 4th week, partial load is started. The healing process is 6-8 weeks. In order to prevent Achilles tendon ruptures, weight gain, shoe selection, stretching and stretching exercises should be performed regularly before sports, especially in middle and upper age people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
