Thanks to each of you who who responded. I have been dealing with this problem for 25 years. Worked with several orthopedic doctors and rehab staffs. Every few years, I have swelling and pain following too much stress on the achilles and running becomes very difficult. Tried many cures over the years as well. Still hurting since the injury last August.


I decided today for surgery later this month. I am giving up the rest of this season in hopes that I can be fully recovered by next year.


If anyone has any post surgery advice, I would like to hear it.

Thanks again

Looking for feedback and advice. I have a heel spur that causes pain and swelling in my achilles tendon. I have had this problem for years and occasionally it gets inflamed. It has been that way since last August. Doctor is now recommending surgery with a 12 month recovery. Although it is getting better, I may select surgery just to be done with it. Does anyone have any experience with this surgery and recovery?
