What is the best treatment for Achilles tears, tendonitis, tendinosis, partial tears? I believe the best treatment is Prolotherapy because Prolotherapy actually directly stimulates where the Achilles tear, is where the Achilles problem is, and where the Achilles tendinosis is. Anyone who can flex their foot up and down means that the tear isn’t a complete tear. If it is a complete tear and you want to recover the best way you can, the best approach is going to be Prolotherapy.

Prolotherapy injections to right in where the tear is, right to where the tendon is, the tendinosis. It will speed up healing tremendously. Typically the people with those conditions just need a few treatments. When those people come right away often it is just one visit. Sometimes after surgical repair if you just get Prolotherapy right away it will speed recovery. Some of the Prolotherapy solutions that we use for the Achilles tendon includes growth hormone. Growth hormone works great. Sometimes we will use Platelet Rich Plasma right into where the Achilles tendon tear is or the degenerated tendon specifically. Once you get Prolotherapy, you can generally start exercising within a couple of days. Athletes love to get Prolotherapy for Achilles tendon tears, partial tears, tendinosis, and tendonitis.
