Chronic Achilles Tendonitis
Achilles tendonitis is an inflammation of the Achilles tendon, often resulting from overuse and repetitive stress. It commonly affects athletes, especially runners, as well as recreational exercisers who increase their activity levels abruptly. Middle-aged individuals and those with biomechanical issues, such as flat feet or high arches, are also at a greater risk.
Symptoms of Chronic Achilles Tendonitis
Pain and stiffness along the Achilles tendon, especially in the morning
Tenderness and area around the heel may feel tender to the touch
Limited range of motion when flexing the foot
Thickening of tendon
Experience Pain Relief: Non-Surgical Treatment for Achilles Tendonitis
What is Achilles Tendonitis Embolization?
Achilles Tendonitis Embolization is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat chronic Achilles tendonitis. During the procedure, the physician uses x-ray guidance to insert a small catheter into the blood vessels supplying the Achilles tendon. Tiny embolic particles are then injected into the abnormal arteries, reducing inflammation, decreasing pain, and promoting healing over time.

“Highly skilled physicians providing a much needed alternative to treatment of common ailments that are still being treated with very invasive and risky procedures. I have been sending my patients with enlarged prostates with obstructive symptoms and the results have been very satisfying with no negative side effects or serious complications. Results are very comparable to surgical outcomes without the risks.”
