Can decreased range of motion in ankle cause achillies tendinitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Achilles: Achilles tendinitis develops secondary to excessive stress on the connection of the tendon to the calcaneal bone. Processes that decrease range of motion of the ankle would effect the tendon from being stretched appropriately during waling and that can lead to tendinitis more likely.
