Tendons connect muscle and bone and in the foot, there are four different ones;

• Achilles tendon - runs down the back of the ankle and calf. This tendon is most prone to injury.
• The peroneal tendon wraps around the bottom of the foot.
• Two tibia tendons run alongside each side of the ankle.

Untreated tendinitis, an inflammation in the tendon, is the most common cause of torn tendons. Muscle fatigue, overtraining, poor warm-up, hill running and in correct shoes are typically the causes of foot tendonitis.

The Arthritis Strategy Pack is a highly effective treatment for achilles tendonitis. Buffer pH balances the internal environment to address tendonitis at its root while Arthritin works on pain and inflammation control. For natural treatment for achilles tendonitis, the Arthritis Strategy Pack is powerful.

The symptoms of a torn tendon or achilles rupture are similar, no matter which tendon is affected.

• Pain: Torn tendon pain can be severe, especially during movement or activity. If you have pain, you should avoid strenuous exercise. Anti-inflammatory medicines (Arthritin is recommended) help with inflammation. Cold compresses may also be effective at reducing the pain and swelling.
• Limited Flexibility: A torn tendon can result in stiffness and limited movement. Self-massage may help relieve some of the stiffness.
• Weakness: Damage and the subsequent weakness to tendons can result in the inability to stand on your toes. Stand on your toes and see which direction your heels point. In well functioning feet and tendons, the heel will point slightly inward. If your heels do not point slightly inward, this could be a sign of tendon damage.
• Flat Foot (Adult acquired): A torn tendon in the foot can present itself as flat foot. This reduction or destruction of the natural arch can be seen from the back as the appearance of too many toes. Early stages of flat foot respond well to orthotic shoes or inserts. Later stages may require surgery.

Tendinitis is an inflammatory condition very common among active individuals. Foot tendonitis is often the result of a strain placed on the achilles tendon and can often result in an achilles rupture. The achilles tendon is an important tendon that starts in the calf and attaches to the heel. This crucial foot tendon is the key to the foot's ability to flex.

Foot tendinitis can be caused by a number of factors. Some of the more common factors associated with foot tendonitis include:

• A sudden increase in the intensity of training.
• A rapid increase in the frequency of training.
• Repeated training on rigid surfaces.
• Genetic abnormalities.

A torn metatarsal tendon or an achilles rupture can occur as a result of injury, overuse, or with aging as the tendon loses elasticity. However, injury is the main cause of torn tendons in the foot and most injury is caused from over exercising. Injury from impact or fall, walking incorrectly on the inside of the foot (overpronating) and diseases such as arthritis are also causes of foot tendontitis.
 
Symptoms of foot tendinitis and peroneal tendonitis include:

• Pain and tenderness along a tendon, usually in proximity to the ankle and/or foot.
• Pain is worse with movement or activity.
• Pain at night.
• Tenderness and swelling where the tendon inserts onto the ankle and/or foot.
• Pain when you try to bend the ankle or foot against resistance.
• Stiffness after exercise.

The goal in treatment for tendonitis is to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. Often, rest, ice and pain relievers are all that's needed.

Inflammation can be treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications such as Motrin or Advil. These medications can be helpful treatments for foot tendinitis but do have side effects. The Arthritis Strategy Pack provides pain relief, as well as inflammation control, without side effects common to prescription and over-the-counter pain relief medicines.
 
Prevention is the best treatment for an achilles rupture. The key to avoiding problems is to slowly increase the intensity of your exercise, vary the types of activities you perform, and try not to cycle between periods of activity and inactivity.

Follow these guidelines to prevent achilles rupture, a torn metatarsal tendon or other other tendon issues;

• Do not train hard when muscles are stiff from a previous workout.
• Introduce new activities or new training levels gradually.
• Allow ample warming up and cooling off time.
• When competing, check courses beforehand.
• Train on a variety of surfaces.
• Using proper footwear.
• Monitor yourself daily for signs of fatigue. If fatigued, give yourself a break for the day.

Proper conditioning should include aerobic fitness, strength training, and flexibility training. Flexibility is very important in preventing overuse injuries such as foot tendinitis.

Gradual progressive stretching increases flexibility and can prevent the injury from returning. Be sure to stretch both before and after all activities. Calf, Achilles, ankle and foot stretching exercises may be performed daily.

If you experience foot tendonitis, you are more likely to have symptoms again down the road. With an intelligent approach to your exercise or activity routine, this problem can often be avoided.
