I have really short and tight achilles tendents on both feet and when i was little i did physical therapy because i was a toe walker(due to the short Achilles) after a couple of months it went away and really didnt walk on my toes for atleast 11 years. Well now all of the sudden im starting to walk back on my toes. If i dont i get really strong unbearable pain on the back of my foot or i cant walk because i lose my balance when i try to touch my heal to the ground. Is it possible after therapy that my achilles tendon could have tightend up again?

Achilles Tendon Pain?
Feb 21
I came close to rupturing my achilles tendon about 2 months ago. I have several small muscles tears throughout the tendon. I have been in a walking boot since then, and I have to wear it for at least another month. I am also doing physical therapy. I am still in a lot of pain, and I wondered if anyone else has had this problem and has any suggestions or suggests that I get an MRI? Thanks!
I would appreciate any comments from someone who has gone through this or any similar procedure. I am especially worried about the rehab/physical therapy phase. Not so much the process, but the results. I know the repair will never be as strong as before the injury, and wondering can anyone give some insight on what I can expect?
