Are you experiencing pain and stiffness in your Achilles tendon? Achilles Tendonitis is a common condition that results from overuse or injury to the Achilles tendon, often affecting athletes and active individuals. Don’t let pain keep you from enjoying your favorite activities—let us help you find relief.

• Pain and Discomfort: Pain along the back of the heel or lower leg, often worsened by physical activity or after periods of inactivity.
• Stiffness: Stiffness in the tendon, especially in the morning or after sitting for long periods.
• Swelling: Mild swelling or thickening of the tendon, which can be sensitive to touch.
• Reduced Strength: Weakness in the calf muscles, making it difficult to push off the ground when walking or running.

This condition can result from repetitive strain, improper footwear, or sudden increases in physical activity.

Advanced Treatment Options at Minimally Invasive Surgical Solutions

At Minimally Invasive Surgical Solutions, we offer a range of specialized, minimally invasive treatments to address Achilles Tendonitis. Our focus is on providing effective solutions that promote healing and improve your quality of life.

Interventional Radiology Treatments for Achilles Tendonitis

Our expert interventional radiologists perform the following advanced treatments:

1. Artery Embolization: A targeted procedure that reduces inflammation in chronic cases of Achilles Tendonitis. By selectively occluding the blood vessels supplying the affected tendon, we can effectively alleviate pain and facilitate healing.

2. Ultrasound-Guided Steroid Injections: These precise injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly into the affected area, providing rapid relief from pain and swelling.

3. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy: Utilizing growth factors from your own blood, PRP therapy stimulates healing in the Achilles tendon, enhancing the body’s natural recovery processes and promoting tissue regeneration.

What to Expect During the Procedure

1. Consultation: Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where we evaluate your symptoms and medical history. Our team will discuss your treatment options and answer any questions you may have.

2. Procedure: The procedures are performed under local anesthesia. Using advanced imaging techniques, our interventional radiologists accurately administer treatments to target the source of pain in the Achilles tendon.

3. Recovery: After the procedure, you’ll be monitored briefly before being discharged. We will provide post-procedure care instructions to help optimize your recovery.

4. Follow-Up Care: Our commitment to your recovery continues with follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed.
