Achilles Tendinitis – Symptoms and Causes

Mobility Issues

As the largest tendon in the body, the Achilles tendon is responsible for many mobility tasks. Therefore, when Achilles tendinitis occurs, you would find it more difficult to move around as usual. Pain and swelling would restrict your range of motion around the ankle area, especially when you want to flex the foot fully. This would eventually affect your daily lives. Thus, it is important to inform your doctor as soon as possible to get proper treatments. [3]
