His right Achilles tendon is a bit “fragile” due to a childhood sports injury. In February of this year, I accidentally strained the end of my right Achilles tendon again during kendo practice. Fortunately, Dr. Yang was able to help him. He was able to recover quickly. As the doctor said, Achilles tendon injury is a troublesome problem that affects life and sports more, and recovery is also slow. The first thing is to calm down and not to be too hasty. First, let the injury get as much rest as possible. I was working in the attack stage, there is no way to rest, not to mention that you have to run around every day. So I took it upon myself to get a single crutch to help share the force of the injury; at the same time, according to Dr. Yang’s advice, choose shoes with thicker and softer soles. In addition, I also put an extra silicone cushion in the shoe. The heel is elevated to reduce the stretching of the injured Achilles tendon. The next step is to apply ice. This is used to reduce capillary congestion and fluid pooling in the area. It helps to reduce the swelling and pain as soon as possible. The way that Dr. Yang pointed out the ice water mixed with ice packs, not only the ice effect is very good, but also can avoid the ice directly cold compress may lead to frostbite Dojo seniors also gave me a Chinese medicine “prescription”, I tried, the effect is not bad – Chuanxiong ( (xiong, a sound) + dahurica, ground into a powder and put it on the injury. It has the effect of reducing swelling and relieving pain. The third is rehab. Personally, I think it’s important to get back to the original state as much as possible to get better. So my brother also attached great importance to the rehab session. Follow the doctor’s instructions, step by step. After the injury healed, the first thing I did was a heel lift exercise with both feet supported, lifting the heel up and slowly dropping it down to let the Achilles tendon gradually adapt to the force. Wait a few days, feel the Achilles tendon almost, and then carry out a single-leg support heel exercises. This exercise usually insists on doing, can also increase the toughness of the Achilles tendon. In addition, you can also do appropriate stretching training: way a: hand propped up against the wall, lunge, back leg taut, the heel do not leave the ground. Self-feeling calf tendons can be pulled, adhere to 30 seconds after relaxation. Way two: hand on the wall, lunge, back leg knee bend, heel off the ground. Self-feeling Achilles tendon pulling sensation can be, adhere to 30 seconds and then relax. The above two ways to do three times a day, to help increase the calf tendons and Achilles tendon force. The fourth is the protection of the movement. Consider that after all, the Achilles tendon has been injured, it is not possible to be as solid as before the injury. So when you start exercising again, in order to protect the relatively fragile Achilles tendon. I followed Dr. Yang’s advice and used athletic tape along the calf tendon and both sides of the Achilles tendon, starting from the knee socket and sticking downward, all the way around the heel and to the center of the foot. In this way, two extra external forces are created to help the Achilles tendon share the force when exercising. Because I practice kendo, wooden floor, no shoes and socks. So when I practice, I put on a special foot protector for my right foot. A similar fully enclosed ankle guard, in the heel part of a soft pad to resist the impact. The usual sports, it is recommended to choose the right foot type, the soles are softer and thicker sports shoes.
