Achilles Tendonitis is inflammation and damage to the Achilles tendon at the back of the ankle due to excessive strain or use. It is a condition that often affects athletes and is associated with factors such as sudden increase in activity, overload or overweight. Common symptoms include pain and stiffness in the morning, pain and tenderness with increased activity, thickening and swelling in the tendon area. Tearing of the Achilles tendon is common, especially in middle-aged athletes and in certain sports. This tear often occurs with sudden and forceful movements, therefore it is important to take appropriate treatment and precautions.

Early rest, cold application and medical treatment should be included in the treatment. In addition, ankle strengthening, Achilles stretching, balance / proprioception exercises, ESWT application, electrotherapy applications and in-water exercises are performed gradually under the supervision of experienced physiotherapists under the control of a doctor.
