Achilles Tendon Pain

Posts Tagged ‘need’

Before cross country season I fractured my tibia and my achilles tendon and formed tendinitis around both my ankles and also had shin splints, due to my stupidity. ( Fixed the problem that gave me all these injuries).

Anyways, 14 weeks have passed so I have tried running again. Just a mile. No pain at all while running. I kept the distance to only a mile. My legs just felt light and weak (Is that normal?). I stretched A LOT before and after. Once I got home after the run my left shin began to hurt when I climbed upstairs. Not a lot, on a 1-10 scale the pain was a 1. It went away quickly.

Days after my hamstrings, legs, and ankles were all really sore and stiff so I decided to take a break from running until I mark the 16th week. How should I work my way back up to running 5-8 miles a day like I used to?

Sivivatu may need surgery
All Blacks doctor Deb Robinson says 43-test wing Sitiveni Sivivatu lost the race against the clock after his knee injury knocked him out of the All Blacks tour.   Robinson confirmed today that Sivivatu’s injury, which he collected in the squad’s pick-up match in Auckland last weekend, may require surgery to remove a bone fragment.   After having an MRI scan on his knee, it was decided Sivivatu …

I’m 16 and I’ve had achilles tendonitis for a year now. I’ve had to rest, wear a boot, and I’ve been in physical therapy since May. I used to play sports yr round but i took off the entire summer and i didnt do soccer for school this year because it hurts too much to run. Basketball (my favorite sport) starts soon and I need to be able to play but my ankle wont get better. The physical therapist said i have a lot of scar tissure in around my ankle too. Pleasee what can I do to get better or at least get rid of the pain?…and advil, tylenol, aleve, etc dont help. I just want to be able to run and play again. Why wont it go away and how can i get it better?? Thanks!
omg i have osgood schlatters too. it runs in my family

I worked for a Company on a federal job. The job fell under Davis-Bacon Wages.

First :

I got my ankle crushed on the job. I had tendon damage
( tendonitis ) nerve damage, cartilage damage, can barely move by ankle side to side. I have been in physical therapy 3x per week for 5 months. My foot goes numb, turns colors, and hurts all the time. I have been under Dr care since the accident. Workers Comp sent me for two Independant Medical Evaluations. Last time, ( their ) doctor said they couldn’t find anything wrong with me. I have 3 doctors who say there is. How can I find out how much damage my ankle really has because according to the IME, Workers Comp is going to want to settle ?

Second :

After the accident, I was contacted by the company ( about a week and a half ) I was asked by the owner if I turned the accident over to Workers Comp. I told him I had and he told me that I was laid off. He sent me a layoff slip. Is that against any law?
I am a Heavy Equipment Operator and I need both of my feet to operate the equipment. My ankle is so bad that I can’t walk on it for longer than 15 – 20 minutes. My doctor talked about surgery and scoping out the cartilage in my ankle.

How does Workers Compensation work in regards to settling a claim ? I need my medical benefits due to future medical procedures.

It seems like the IME said I had nothing wrong so he could clear Workers Comp from paying future medical bills OR to settle the claim for a little bit of nothing…

I need opinions on this situation. I am out of work now. I have been under doctors care for several months, and the company laid me off due to this injury.

Okay, I have 3 problems that are bothering me, and I was going to put them in 3 different categories or whatever but I decided not to.

First and foremost, I’m 16 years old, almost 17. I’m very active. I play volleyball, basketball, cross country, track, golf, and tennis. And I eat pretty good so i’m very healthy.

Problem #1- I keep having these sharp pains in my chest. Really bad. And they last like 5 minutes, hurt like crazy.

Problem #2- My ankles. Every time I put a shoe on and run they sting. Very badly. and theres these little lump thingies on them that look like pockets of fluid or something?

Problem #3- This one bugs me the worst and has been for a while. I hurt my knee during basketball practice last year. This girl was going in for a layup and knocked me down, and ever since my knee has hurt. Bad at first, then got worse so I had to limp, Now it’s getting better but still hurts like crazy every now and then. Problem, now both knees are starting to hurt. I’ve been to 4 different doctors, first one said I had fluid under my patella and my kneecap was displaced, 2nd one said I sprained my knee, 3rd one said I had jumpers knee, and 4th one said I had tendinitis. I’m so confused and I don’t know what to do cuz it hurts so much but I don’t want to go to the doctor for a 5th time.

So many problems, so little time. Volleyball is about to start so I have to get fixed fast! But I don’t want to go to the doc yet again

I have many problems with my elbows, knees, and ankles and I’m unsure if they need to be fixed surgically. I have sprained them all so many times and often have tendinitis. Lately, I have been getting my elbows stuck in a position where they can not go into a 180 degree position. they get locked at about 90 degrees. I’m unsure if this is due to the hypermobility or another problem. I would like them to get fixed very soon though because I play year round sports and have an off season. My knees often just have pain and the one constantly has a bone that sticks out to the outside which doesn’t seem normal. I sprain my ankles a lot but wear braces while exercising to prevent that however I’ve also had surgery on both. Is elbow/knee surgery needed to be considered?

I went to the Orthopedic Dr. for ankle and foot pain. Ive had this pain for about 6 months and it was caused by something falling onto my foot. Since I did not have insurance nobody was willing to take a look at it. So I just dealt with it. I got a splint from walgreens and used it as needed. Well now the pain is so bad no matter what Iam doing( even kicking the blanket off at night causes a horrible pain.) Seeing how ive been hurting for so long I do not really limp from it anymore. although I do get pain. Well the Dr I went to was a complete A**. He said since Im not limping, that im not in pain meaning nothing is really wrong with me. He did xrays just to check and it showed no broken bones. He said he thinks its tendinitis and gave me Voltaren Xr 100mg and told me to take it every day for a month and sent me on my way. and also to make sure i wear shoes ALL the time except when i shower. Sorry but im not sleeping in shoes!!Do you think this is the right treatment and should give it a try or should i seek a 2nd opinion

Thank you

Over the past 4 days my knees and elbows (and wrists and ankles to a lesser extent) have become increasingly sore, and today I can barely walk. It’s difficult to get up out of bed or out of a chair too. I can feel the pain while sitting idle, but it’s at its worst when I apply pressure to the joints.

I don’t know what it would be. I haven’t done anything differently than I ever do to bring this on. Does arthritis hit that quickly and severely? Or could it be tendonitis or something?

I’m a 29 year old male in good physical condition.

Swimming is started soon, Febuary, and I haven’t swam since the summer. My new school is all about athletics so many of the swimmers are amazing, and have extremely fast times. I have achilles tendonitis, not allowing me to do very many things. That is my main issue, really. My ankles are weak from it, and I cannot run. I need exercises that i can do quick and get results soon. I have a bike but it doesn’t work and needs a lot of repair. I’d really appreciate the help.
THANKS

ok well i’m a 15 yr old female and i’ve played softball for 10 yrs of my life…
but for the past three years my arm and ankle have been acting up, it turns out that i have severe tendinitis in both areas… i ended up going to physical rehab and taking a season off…there was definitely and improvement in the ankle but not so much in my arm….my mom thinks its best if i choose another hobby(which i’d prefer it to be a sport).
I”m just worried that its not going to go so well considering i’m 15 and starting a new sport.
are there any sports out there that are fun and a work out that i could engage in without injuring my arm or doing any further damage?
all answers are appreciated thank you:)
ps i don’t have pool near me
