Conditions treated here
- Achilles tendinopathy Pain and stiffness at the back of the heel that is worst on the first steps of the morning and eases as you warm up. It responds to progressive loading, not rest.
- Plantar heel pain Sharp heel pain on the first steps of the morning that eases with walking and returns after sitting.
- Runner's knee (patellofemoral pain) Aching around or behind the kneecap, worse on stairs, hills and after sitting for long periods.
- Bone stress injury in runners Focal bone pain that worsens through a run rather than warming up, and does not settle with the usual soft-tissue measures. High-anxiety, and the distinction matters.
