Achilles Tendonitis: Braces & Supports for Faster Healing
Achilles tendonitis affects the thick tendon linking your calf muscles to your heel, enabling you to walk, run, and jump. Overuse, tight muscles, or sudden strain can inflame the tendon, triggering stiffness, pain, and even micro-tears. At Brace Direct, we offer specialized braces, boots, and night splints to relieve tension on the Achilles and speed up recovery.
Common Causes & Symptoms
Achilles tendonitis can develop gradually from repetitive strain or appear acutely with a sharp pull. Contributing factors include:
- Sudden Increases in Activity: Ramping up running distance or intensity too quickly.
- Inadequate Stretching: Tight calf muscles place added stress on the tendon.
- Improper Footwear: Worn or unsupportive shoes can shift pressure toward the heel.
- High-Impact Sports: Basketball, tennis, or sprinting repeatedly strain the Achilles.
Symptoms often include heel pain, morning stiffness, swelling along the tendon, and discomfort that intensifies with activity.
How Braces & Splints Support Achilles Tendon Recovery
Targeted bracing and splinting can reduce tension on the Achilles, helping you move with less pain and risk of re-injury. In particular, these supports:
- Limit Overextension: Boots or braces keep the foot from bending too far upward or downward, protecting the tendon.
- Improve Blood Flow: Light compression aids circulation, which can minimize swelling and speed healing.
- Encourage Gentle Stretching: Night splints hold the ankle in a slightly flexed position, preventing the tendon from tightening overnight.
- Provide Stability & Support: Whether you’re walking or resting, bracing reduces strain on inflamed fibers.
Combined with calf exercises, rest, and anti-inflammatory techniques, bracing can dramatically reduce discomfort and keep you on your feet.
