class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The\u00a0<strong>Achilles tendon<\/strong>\u00a0is the thickest tendon in the human body, connecting the calf muscles (gastrocnemius and soleus) to the heel bone (calcaneus). It plays a crucial role in plantar flexion (push-off motion), essential for walking, running, and jumping. Ruptures commonly occur in active individuals aged 30\u201350, often due to sudden bursts of force or overloading. With the rise in sports participation, the incidence of Achilles tendon ruptures has increased. Physiotherapy is critical in managing Achilles tendon ruptures, whether treated surgically or non-surgically, and requires a structured rehabilitation plan for optimal recovery.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-207207f e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\"
