Achilles Tendonitis

ByNichole Porath

Anyone know how to treat this QUICKLY? It came on Thursday after a hard/long Wednesday evening run. I’ve never had Achilles trouble before, so I’m a little perplexed that it came on so quickly and has been so bad.

Generally it feels bruised/tight when walking around. Running on it Thursday it had a burning sensation. A couple steps later in the run produced some sharp stabbing pain. I took Friday off, and tried running again Saturday with the same progression (burning to stabbing). Called it quits at 2 miles. Hmmm… guess I’m a little worried about this one 🙁

Thought I’d throw this out there to see if anyone reading had great ideas 🙂

Work is getting to be too much. I don’t mind OT once in a while, but for the last 2.5 months I feel like I’ve been overloaded. Last night was another 14.5 hour day – and that’s 14.5 hours of inputting/compiling/analyzing as quickly as I can. Exhausting, to say the least. I got home around…
