    Default Re: achilles tendon

    Funny one this.

    the peneral tendon (think that's how it's spelt? :P) on the bottom of my left foot had been flaring up for a few weaks.

    I remember cramping up my calf doing some plyos in the middle of a roadwork session and jogging it off, it was fine afterwards. The week after I was walking down hte street in normal shoes and it really started hurting. I put it down to over exerting in the run and thought it would just go away.

    Took over a week for the penny to drop, it first came on a few days after the run, I was walking down the street with my everyday shoes on. they're trainer-shoes so I just lace them up and slip them on and off. To cut a long story short they'd became quite lose from doing this.

    I tightened them up and it was gona within a few days. The muscles related to that tendon (I don't know the latin, some of the innercalf muscles-medial/posterior?) are involved in stablising the ankle joint and must have been affected by cramp I felt and obviously having my shows all over the place was the grain of sand that broke the camels back (or foot! ).

    Guess it shows that what you say is true- the body works all or nothing... one little problem and because I didn't spot it- a few days later I can barely walk!
