It is a chronic pain of the achilles tendon (joins the calf and lower leg muscles to the heel of the foot), and often occurs due to overuse, for example by running. The initial overuse of the tendon may only result in slight tenderness, but if you continue to overuse it, the pain will quickly worsen and make exercise extremely painful.
It is important to see a chiropodist so that problems such as verruca’s, corns and ingrown toenails can be diagnosed and treated effectively and accurately. Mis-diagnosis is a common problem seen daily in our clinics, so we strive to rectify foot-related problems in a professional and efficient manner.
