What Is Achilles Tendinitis?

Achilles Tendinitis is a painful foot ailment. It is an inflammation of the Achilles Tendon, which is a band of tissues connecting the calf muscles to the heel bone. Typically this condition is brought on by running or jogging. The pounding stress put on your feet from running causes this inflammation of the Achilles tendon.
