Achilles tendon injuries are common, often evident in middle aged runners to non-sporting individuals. They are often characterised by pain in the tendon, usually at the beginning and end of exercise, pain and stiffness first thing in the morning or after sitting for long periods. There is much that can be done to both speed up the healing and prevent re-occurrence.
