Q&A
What is an Achilles tendon injury?
An Achilles tendon injury can range from inflammation (tendonitis) to partial or complete tears. It affects the band of tissue at the back of the ankle that connects the calf to the heel, essential for pushing off during walking or running.
Do all Achilles tendon injuries require surgery?
No. Many cases of tendonitis and partial tears can be treated successfully with physical therapy, rest, and activity modification. Complete ruptures may require surgery followed by extensive rehab.
How long does recovery take for an Achilles injury?
Recovery varies depending on severity. Mild to moderate injuries can improve in 6–12 weeks with therapy. Post-surgical or complete rupture recovery may take 4–6 months or longer.
Can I return to sports after an Achilles tendon injury?
Yes. With a structured rehabilitation program focusing on strength, flexibility, and progressive loading, many people return to their previous activity levels. Gradual return to sport is essential to prevent reinjury.
