The Achilles tendon starts in the middle of your calf and runs down the back of your leg to your heel.

I had a sore #Achilles tendon and now a tight/sore calf on the same side. Anyone else had that before?
Let's hope a relaxing epsom salts bath sorts that out!

A great reminder that defining "normal" #anatomy is essential for improving diagnosis. This work by @NNoelBarker establishes regional variation in healthy #Achillestendon structure, laying the groundwork for earlier detection of tendinopathy and more targeted clinical assessment.

🦶 When your Achilles is too damaged to simply stitch back together — we rebuild it.
Some Achilles injuries can't be fixed with a standard repair:
❌ Chronic ruptures with massive gaps

Step 2: Identify both torn ends (usually a 2-5cm gap)
