Quick question about Achilles tendonitis.
I have psoriasis. I'm on methotrexate and anti tnf for the arthritis. I've got a continual flare in my ankle, which means running at the moment is impossible. I mean, I think I can knock out 5 and 10 but my ankle won't let me do more than 2. So I'm not.
Heel raises?
Anything else?
I'm tempted to cry and say "can I have a steroid injection". Long term anti inflammatory like diclofenac?
Any advice from fellow tendon pain sufferers welcome. I'd like to get back to cyclo-cross and running is sort of necessary when you're shit.
