So I've got a good bout of Achilles tendinitis. Diagnosed yesterday. I've been given stretching exercises and instructions for rest and everything as expected.
Right now I'm doing the shuffle with a sideways foot when I need to walk and frankly, it's exhausting. Normal walking has me grimacing in pain. I'm trying out an maximum support ankle brace and it's helping somewhat with walking.
Is this a good idea or bad? Should I consider going back to the doc tomorrow or give it a few days?
