Achilles tendinitis is characterized by inflammation of the Achilles tendon, often caused by repetitive activity that puts excessive stress on the tendon. This overuse disorder is common among athletes and individuals with excessive pronation, which further increases the stress on the tendon. Symptoms include pain, stiffness, aching, tenderness, and burning, especially after periods of inactivity.

At Ortho Design, we can provide custom orthotics and other preventative measures to help alleviate the symptoms of Achilles tendinitis. Our custom orthotics are designed to provide support and stability to the foot, reducing the stress on the Achilles tendon and promoting proper alignment and movement.
