The achilles tendon is a tough strip of fibrous tissue that runs from your heel bone to the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles of the calf. Achilles tendonitis is a repetitive stress injury that occurs when this tendon becomes inflamed and painful. In some cases, the achilles tendon may also be swollen.The insertional type of achilles tendonitis is a variant of this condition. With insertional achilles tendonits, the pain and inflammation occurs at the point at which the achilles tendon connects to the heel bone. The treatment of achilles tendonitis requires resting the tendon and allowing it to recover naturally. Warm up and stretching exercises are also useful in preventing the return of the condition.
