It is an overuse injury of the Achilles tendon, the band of tissue that connect calf muscles at the back of the lower leg to heel bone. There are number of treatment approaches to relieve pain in Achilles tendonitis . Insufficient literature has discuss the combine effect of myofascial release with eccentric resistance. So the aim of the study is to compare the effect of myofascial release with eccentric resistance and without eccentric resistance on pain , range of motion and functional disability in patient with Achilles tendinitis

Conditions

  • Achilles Tendonitis

Interventions

OTHER

eccentric resistance exercise

The subject will lying prone on a treatment table. One end of eccentric resistance band will tie around the mid of the foot of indvidual, the other end of the resistance band will be attach to the table and the band is adjusted so that it will tight and there will be no slack present in it. It will provide a smooth eccentric resistance throughout the dorsiflexion range
