@sharp_physiotherapy: Achilles Pain That Won’t Go Away? It usually starts as a bit of stiffness in the heel when you get out of bed. You walk it off and think nothing of it. But then it lingers. Walking feels tight, running leaves it sore, and some days even pressing on the tendon is uncomfortable. Most people try stretching, resting, or swapping shoes. Sometimes it eases for a while, but the pain keeps coming back. That’s because the Achilles doesn’t just need time, it needs the right treatment. One approach we often use is an IASTM tool. By working along the tendon and surrounding calf tissue, it helps release stubborn tightness, improve blood flow, and calm down irritation. But the tool is just the start. Once the tendon is freer and less irritable, the real progress comes from building it back up with the right exercises at the right stage. That’s how you restore strength, stop the flare-ups, and get back to moving without pain. It’s not about doing everything, it’s about doing the right things in the right order, and that’s where recovery really happens.
