After two weeks of growing and worsening right Achilles tendinitis, and foolish pushing my body before it was fully healed I finally broke down and committed myself to allowing it to heal! Duh!! Fortunately, after anti-inflammatories (Ibuprofen), 4-minutes gentle standing stretch after activity, usage of elliptical trainer (instead of running), and ice the results are VERY encouraging! At least one more week of elliptical ONLY (despite desire to RUN!) should fix the problem completely... just in time to run the Texas Independence Run!!!! |
