Dr. Perez will discuss surgical options which include, lengthening your calf muscle increasing the motion of your ankle or removing the damaged part of your Achilles tendon. The Tenex procedure is a minimal invasive procedure that will remove the diseased tendon. If there is bone spur in the back of the heel, we might need to remove the spur. In severe cases, she might suggest moving the tendon that supports your big toe to your heel bone to strengthen the damaged tendon.
