Episode notes
Achilles injuries are becoming more common, possibly due to the low vascularization of tendons, leading to slower growth and regrowth. Tissues also become more brittle with age, especially in individuals not engaging in regular physical activity. The frequency of Achilles injuries may also be related to the increasing average age of competitors in certain sports. There are two main factors to consider in preventing injuries: general fitness, muscle strength, and endurance; and specific joint, tendon, and injury-related considerations.
