Professional podiatry assessment and treatment for Achilles pain, irritation, and overuse injuries.
Achilles pain occurs when the large tendon at the back of your ankle becomes irritated, overloaded, or inflamed. This tendon links your calf muscles to your heel bone and is essential for walking, running, and pushing off the ground.
Overuse, sudden increases in activity, poor footwear, or biomechanical issues can weaken the tendon or cause ongoing pain. Without proper treatment, symptoms may become chronic and limit everyday movement.
At Norwest Podiatry, we assess the underlying cause of your tendon pain and create a treatment plan that supports healing and prevents recurrence.
