Question by Person P.:
Chronic Tendinits? Heel bone injury?
When I was 13 I started having this pain nn my left heel, which my doctor diagnosed as Achilles Tendonitis.
She told me to rest for the next 2 weeks, but it quickly came back, so I decided to rest for 2 or 3 months, but it came back again, after a few soccer games. After this, I did not do any sports for at least 6 months to make sure it would really be gone.
I am now 14 and this “tendonitis” seems to be back, but I’m really not sure if it really is tendonitis, as the pain I feel is never on the tendon itself, but somewhere on the heel bone. It feels like burning, and my heel somewhat feels heavier when I have it…
My question is, Is it really a tendonitis that keeps coming back or is it something else?
What treatment do I need?
Thanks
