About Achilles Tendonitis Treatment Center

When you start feeling foot pain from an overused or damaged Achilles tendon the pain may be excruciating. That may be the point when you visit the best New York podiatrist for evaluation and treatment. Your Achilles tendons play an integral role in everyday movement and early management is highly recommended. Degeneration and overuse of the Achilles tendons is one of the main issues that your podiatrist in New York sees on a regular basis. The stresses of running, jumping and extensive overuse lead to the common injury called Achilles tendinitis. Our Manhattan based foot doctor describes tendinitis as an inflammation of tissue which is often the first stage of the Achilles tendon deteriorating, emphasizing the importance of a prompt visit to a foot and ankle doctor. Your foot doctor in NYC Dr Sophia Solomon likely can tell just by touching your Achilles tendons if you are having problems there. To confirm a diagnosis of Achilles tendinitis, however, you may need to undergo imaging tests. X-rays show any calcification or hardening of your tendons around your heel. X-rays also help to pinpoint the origin of the hardening to determine whether you have insertional or noninsertional tendinitis. Come see our podiatry clinic and meet renowned New York podiatrist and foot surgeon in Manhattan Dr. Solomon. She is one of the best podiatrists in NYC and among the top foot specialists in NY.
