Find Relief from Tendon Pain at Central Florida Foot & Ankle Institute

Tendon pain in the feet and ankles can significantly impact your daily life, limiting mobility and causing discomfort. At Central Florida Foot & Ankle Institute, we specialize in diagnosing and treating various forms of tendon pain, helping you regain function and comfort.

Understanding Tendon Pain

Tendons are the tough fibers that connect muscle to bone. Overuse, injury, or degenerative conditions can lead to tendon pain. Common tendon issues in the foot and ankle include Achilles tendinitis, peroneal tendinitis, and posterior tibial tendinitis.

Symptoms of Tendon Issues

• Pain and tenderness directly over the tendon
• Swelling or thickening of the tendon
• Pain that worsens with activity or after long periods of rest
• Stiffness and loss of flexibility in the affected area

Our Approach to Tendon Pain Treatment

Treatment depends on the severity and cause of your tendon pain:

• Rest and Ice: Initial steps to reduce pain and swelling.
• Physical Therapy: Exercises to strengthen and stretch the tendon and surrounding muscles.
• Custom Orthotics or Bracing: To support the affected area and reduce strain.
• Medication: Anti-inflammatory drugs or corticosteroid injections for pain relief.
• Advanced Techniques: Including shockwave therapy or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections.

Surgical Options

In cases where conservative treatments do not provide relief, surgery may be necessary to repair the damaged tendon. Our surgeons use minimally invasive techniques to ensure the best outcomes and the shortest possible recovery time.
