This injury has been so incredibly frustrating. It's so hard to keep trying; to keep believing it will ever be back to normal. The setbacks are brutal. Now it's time to try again.

I'm past month 4 with my injury. Forced myself back into the gym, running on pain killers, but making it happen... starting to finally see some improvement... for me, the key is more work, not more rest!

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much.

This is the best video I’ve seen on this topic.

Truly relieved of the pain and will follow your exercises!

Thank you Dr Becca. Im pessimistically looking at a year to get better at 68.

Great video. I have reinjured myself, but I have made great progress. I will refer back to this video and use it as well as my first PT experience. I also like doing exercises in a pool as well as outside of it. What is very interesting is that my brain tells me that I am healed, yet when I do certain exercises, I am not as strong with the injured leg. Consistency and patience is essential for this injury.....

Thank you im going to give this a try. I dont know what is wrong with my leg but i do know i walk alot at work so it being a nerver or tendon being over worked. i could see that being the issue. My job requires me to do alot of walking everywhere in the plant and my leg at times will feel like its falling alseep. tingling sensation behind my heel and under it to. Hopefully this works for me.

Thanks Doc Becca…I get an MRI tomorrow. I’ll get in touch via your consult link when I know exactly what’s goin on with mr tendon.

Thanks for this! So helpful

Thank you sooo much for this video. I had a 2 meniscus tears and i have alot of inflammation. I had a scope done. Now my calfs are burning so 🔥 much. I think these exercises will help.

Mines back again after going for a year! This is a great video. 110kg doing Thai Boxing is no fun after already suffering from Achilles issues during my time in the armed forces haha. Love if you would do a shoulder impingement video. Mine hurts near the front when my arm is above my head and externally rotates.

Thank you so much.

I was diagnosed with gout in my achilis tendon today. No injury so no idea where it came from. I don't eat red meat and I stopped drinking last year. I'm going to start with your exercise tomorrow. Thanks for doing this😊

Doc after the building process are there exercises that you do that are more progressive/advanced like depth drops to help absorb force?

Love your videos! 😊 Could you make a video about how to treat and prevent stiffness and pain in the neck?

You are the best

@dr.beccasrehab Thank you for the plan! I will start tomorrow !! What do you think on using an ankle brace at night to keep the foot flexed so in the morning it doesn't hurt as bad? What do you think about ultrasound and tense in home devices to help with the healing?

Hi, this is very useful, thank you! I had a right ankle replacement with fusion under the heel and with tendon augmentation 7 months ago. I have been doing well, but I think the PT rushed me i to the building phase too fast. I didn’t realize this due to post-workout icing and electro-stim. (They are on a schedule for insurance reasons.) Since you asked, it would be very helpful to know how to calm the rest of the tendons in my ankle. The perineal gets tired very fast and the one running over the outside of the instep gets cranky, but less so. I have good days and bad days. The foot is loosening up now that I started using silicone toe separators and working on my muscle isolation (toe spreading, trying to get my individual toe control back. I try not to waddle and I use trekking poles as needed. I have been doing isometric and isostatic loadinf for the achilles, but haven’t found anything similar for the rest of my foot. Ankle replacement are getting more common with 3D printed joints, I think there may be others dealing with similar frustration. (My hip replacement was a piece of cake compared to this 😄) Thank you, `Kate
