Achilles heel, Leg pain, and the Achilles Tendon

Like all tendons, the Achilles tendon is a fibrous band used to help the muscles work a joint. In specific, the Achilles tendon connects the heel to the calf muscle. Two muscles in the lower leg form the calf muscles: the Gastroc-soleus muscles or muscle group. The Gastroc-Soleus muscle is the global term given to these two muscles (the combination of the soleus and the gastrocnemius). When the calf muscles contract, they pull on the Achilles tendon. The contraction of the calf muscles extends or raises the foot.

Without a properly functioning Achilles tendon, walking will be a near impossibility. The Achilles tendon provides support and ensures proper function of the legs, thighs, and spine. Prolonged and neglected Achilles tendon issues can have far-reaching consequences that can impact joints as far away as your knees, hips, and back.

Tendocalcaneal Bursitis and the Achilles Tendon

Muscles are designed to rub against each other in a multitude of ways. Bursa is a fluid-filled sac that protects muscles and tendons. You can find them all over the body, more or less wherever you have muscles! Unfortunately, these bursae can become inflamed. The term bursitis is used to indicate the presence of an inflammatory reaction in a bursa. Tendocalcaneal bursitis is a fancy way of saying, “the bursa behind the heel bone becomes swollen and painful.” Usually, the bursa would limit the friction where the Achilles tendon rubs against the back of the calf and the heel. An inflamed bursa causes leg pain. Achilles’ heel resulting from bursitis is easily treatable through our methods of targeted Achilles treatment in Malaysia.
