In young adults, plantar fascia is also attached to Achilles tendon or Calcaneal tendon, which is the tendinous extension of lower leg muscles (the calf muscle).

Achilles or calcaneal tendon rupture and damage (triceps muscle), which is attached to the calcaneal tubercle and is very thick, appears as a result of strong tension.

The distal insertion site of the Achilles tendon (heel cord) and the origin of the plantar fascia are close in proximity and the outer layer of the two structures is continuous.

On physical examination, the patient often has tightness of the Achilles tendon - this is consistent with the close anatomical relationship of the heel cord with the plantar fascia [5].

This quick procedure releases the tightness of and lengthens the Achilles tendon (heel cord) so that the foot is physically able to get into the proper position.

In addition, your doctor will probably examine your child's heel cord (Achilles tendon) for tightness and may check the bottom of your child's foot for calluses.

Achilles tendonitis (inflammation and swelling of the Achilles tendon);

Achilles tendinopathy is a condition where the Achilles tendon is inflamed.

ACHILLES TENDONS: When the front of the foot moves down in relation to the heel, the Achilles Tendons tightens up.

very rarely – tendon rupture (for example, Achilles tendon).

A complete tear of the Achilles tendon is a serious injury, usually resulting from sudden, forceful stress.
