The cause of Achilles tendonitis, with the withdrawal of Liu Xiang from the Olympic Games due to injury, Achilles tendonitis also became famous. Clinically, Achilles tendonitis is a common foot and ankle disorder that is caused by people over-exercising on a daily basis or engaging in long-term labor that increases the load on the Achilles tendon. Generally athletes or dancers are prone to change to this disease. Achilles tendonitis has a great impact on patients, it seriously hinders their daily free activities and makes them want to stop. Causes of Achilles tendonitis: 1. When running, the foot gastrocnemius muscle contracts to raise the heel and the front half of the foot touches the ground. Achilles tendon due to repeated violent impact, especially athletes every day to carry out the “limit”, long-term down to cause inflammatory reaction, it will lead to Achilles tendonitis. 2, the heel is too soft, the heel is not stable in the shoe, excessive movement of the heel will lead to instability and overload of the Achilles tendon stop; the sole is too hard, the first metatarsophalangeal joint between the toe and the foot can not be bent; the shoe is too big, the stirrup jump will bend the toe to gouge the sole hard. All of these may make the Achilles tendon to withstand the increased pulling force. 3, sometimes athletes train incorrectly, such as when hitting the ball online, the toes are excessively internally or externally rotated, and the ankle joint is unstable when landing on the stirrup, which can easily lead to Achilles tendonitis. In addition, due to the long time, overload training, many officers and soldiers will feel “foot pain”, this is also the Achilles tendonitis trouble. Patients suffering from Achilles tendonitis, its specific symptoms are mainly three aspects: 1, the ankle swelling, from the Achilles tendon in the Achilles stop about 4 cm pressure pain, especially in the morning when you get up the most obvious; 2, ankle stiffness, but this stiffness will gradually reduce with the Achilles tendon gradually activity; 3, activity pain gradually increased, especially in running or running after the Achilles tendon to produce local pain or radiating pain. For the treatment of Achilles tendonitis clinically there are many treatment methods, oral medication, topical spray, physical therapy, surgery, etc., no matter which treatment method is to relieve the movement tension of the affected area, improve the elasticity of the affected soft tissue and tendons, and regulate the balance of the affected internal environment, so as to achieve the purpose of curing Achilles tendonitis. Chinese medicine has always been a wonder of our country’s medicine, and Chinese medicine is an important part of it, over the years in medicine with its good efficacy, the convenience of the treatment method, gradually by the world’s attention and pro-gaze. Traditional Chinese medicine soak the affected foot is its preferred method of treatment of Achilles tendonitis, the liquid directly contact the affected body surface, through penetration into the skin, internal transmission of meridians, internal organs, to eliminate swelling and pain, blood stasis, meridians, tendons and bones, etc., in addition, it can promote the heel fat pad thickness increase, increase the flexibility of the heel, so that the heel damaged tissue regeneration, restore the heel should be elastic. In this way, the double effect, quickly lift the heel pain problem, so that the Achilles tendonitis never return. The daily precautions for Achilles tendonitis: 1, usually try to avoid wearing some soft, thin-soled cloth shoes, or soft slippers, do not make the foot followed by cold or freezing, to prevent aggravation of symptoms; 2, in the heel application of thick cushion protection, available hollow heel pain pad to control the diseased area, to reduce local friction, injury; 3, often do foot stomping action, enhance the tension of the metatarsal tendon membrane, strengthen its ability to resist strain, to reduce local inflammation; 4, often do foot stomping action, enhance the tension of the metatarsal tendon membrane, strengthen its ability to resist strain. Reduce local inflammation; 4, warm water foot soak, supplemented by physical therapy when available, can reduce local inflammation, relieve pain and speed up the healing process.
