Achilles Inflamed, how to treat?
|
Left Achilles aches. Hurts to touch the tendon, doesn't bother me day to day, but sore after runs and near the end of runs. rI'm thinking a bit more rest, ice and more biking...but my bike shop just shut down and my shit needs work.

I have the same issue when I train for long runs my left Achilles does the same thing. The pain goes away after the first few miles but then it's sore for days afterwards with visible swelling.
As far as treatment you nailed it dude, my wife is a PT and that is what she has me do, that and some alieve to fight the inflammation. Also make sure to stretch it after you run and a few times a day to keep it loose.
