What are the symptoms of Achilles tendon strain?

The symptoms of Achilles tendon injury depend on the degree of injury. If the injury is incomplete, the symptoms are swelling, pain, subcutaneous bruising, limited ankle movement, mainly reduced plantar flexion strength, dorsiflexion is not affected. If the Achilles tendon injury is complete, the ankle joint plantar flexion disorder is obvious, unable to complete the heel lifting movement. Therefore, it is necessary to brake, rest and observe in time after Achilles tendon injury. Depending on the injury, incomplete injuries can be treated conservatively with braces; complete ruptures require MRI examination and Achilles tendon repair or Achilles tendon insertion reconstruction. Different surgical methods are adopted depending on the location of the rupture. Warm up well before exercise to prevent strenuous exercise and reduce jumping can prevent Achilles tendon strain.
