REST, ICE, COMPRESSION, ELEVATION (R.I.C.E.) & EXERCISE 


REST.
Rest and minimize exercise. If the symptoms persist after a week, it's recommended that you seek advice from your GP or physiotherapist.
ICE. To reduce pain or swelling, apply ice by using a cold pack or a cold towel. 
COMPRESSION. Using compressive bandages or FALKE ACHILLES and FALKE ENERGIZING Compression socks can assist in minimizing swelling and limiting the movement of the affected tendon.
ELEVATION. Elevate the affected foot above the heart level to decrease swelling. Also keep the foot elevated during sleep at night.
EXERCISE. Slowly build back strength and functionality of the Achilles tendon by doing stretching and strengthening exercises (with the guidance of a physiotherapist).

TIPS FOR TREATING ACHILLES TENDON PAIN

Achilles tendon pain, also known as tendinopathy, refers to an injury to the tendon that links the muscles of your lower leg to your heel bone.
This may result in discomfort, stiffness, and in some cases, swelling around the heel.

TIPS TO PREVENT ACHILLES TENDON PAIN 

Gradually build up new activities. Allow enough recovery time in between workouts. 
Limit repetitive motions that exert stress on your Achilles tendon.
Ensure to perform a warm-up routine and stretch your calf muscles after exercising.
