How can a person walk and exercise with a damaged heel tendon?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exercise: Get cleared by your dooctor first. You can start with a aquajogger in the pool(no weight ) progress to stationary bike and then to an arc type trainer...You should have the best success with the help of a physical therapist.
