Achilles tendon inflammation can be soaked in hot water. Achilles tendon inflammation is a local aseptic inflammation caused by chronic strain of Achilles tendon for a long time. It is characterized by local pain, soreness and discomfort, and limited movement. If it is acute, it should stop exercise, let it rest, and apply local ice. If it is chronic, it should let it rest, locally compress, soak feet, and take non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as celecoxib. At the same time, local massage should be performed, and support pads should be used to raise ankles to reduce tensile stimulation of Achilles tendon. Generally 3 - 4 weeks can be cured or self-repair.
