THIS HURTS! What hurts...: My right Achilles tendon. I had a repair surgery [10 weeks ago]. How you hurt it...: It was ruptured during playing soccer. When you hurt it...: [About 10 weeks ago]. Your pain level (1 is low, 10 is high pain): 9. Your age and overall health...: 47, overall health is very good. Any other information you feel is relevant...: I has a total rupture in my right Achilles tendon. The tendon was stitched and then repaired using additional calf muscle strip (please see attached images). My leg was in a cast for six weeks. Started stretching my foot for 3 weeks now. I can take very small steps with partial weight put on my foot, and I still can not walk without my crutches. I\'ve had three sessions so far of physio (AMF electric current, inflating pressure press on my leg from down and up to remove the swelling and improve blood circulation, and gentle massages to the tendon and ankle area). My right shoulder, and bicep muscle and lower back are in real pain from prolonged use of crutches and immobilization. I thank you for your advice from the bottom of my heart.
