Tendons like peroneals and tibialis posterior require specific rehabilitation. Phases of rehab include pain management and capacity building. Differentiating between tendon injuries is crucial for effective treatment. Orthotics can significantly aid in unloading painful tendons. Load modification is key in managing chronic pain conditions. Footwear plays a vital role in recovery from injuries. Plantar fasciitis treatment requires understanding of compressive vs tensile pain. Education is essential for patients to understand their conditions. Effective communication with patients enhances treatment outcomes. Imaging is crucial for ruling out serious conditions in tendon injuries. Accurate diagnosis is essential for effective treatment of tendon pain. Rehabilitation should focus on the specific needs of the tendon involved. Ankle stiffness can significantly affect athletic performance. The minimum effective dose of exercise is important for maintaining tendon health. Tendon injuries require a combination of loading and unloading strategies for recovery. Nutrition plays a vital role in tendon healing and overall performance. Understanding the biomechanics of the foot is key to preventing injuries. The body adapts to loading cycles, which can influence recovery from injuries. Long-term monitoring of tendon health is necessary for athletes.
