How to use "Achilles tendon" in context?
The Achilles Tendon is one of the largest and most complex tendons in the body. This tendon is located on the back of the heel and connects the calf muscle to the heel bone. The Achilles tendon is responsible for bending the ankle joint and providing support to the arch of the foot.
Injuries to the Achilles tendon are often very painful and can completely halt an athlete's progress. These injuries can occur from a variety of causes, including overuse, tension, or a sudden severe force. Treatment typically includes cessation of the offending activity, resting the tendon, and using physical therapy to gradual re-strengthen the tendon.
