Good luck!
I saw a physio back in January who said it was para tendonitis of the achilles. No lower back problems. Did wonder if it was connected to sore spot on sole of foot ie PF - but was told that was much more painful. This is a low grade soreness on the right side of the achilles which is constant now but only hurts if I push the tendon and doesn't hurt to run or walk or when I get out of the bed first thing in morning. I had a sports massage last week and she said the achilles felt smooth with no indication of scar tissue. I am going to see a physio at the end of the season but if it doesn't hurt when I run I wondering how important it is to get sorted? I live in a very hilly place so training and competing on hills is unavoidable!
