What Causes Inflamed Tissue Around Achilles?
The tissue around my Achilles tended is so tender and am unable to touch my heel at all. It hurts to walk in the morning and evenings. Unable to wear shoes at this point. The MRI only showed the tissue was inflamed. And I was told my body is producing extra flood to protect the surrounds area of the heel. What would you make of these symptoms? Please help.
