Gastrocnemius Tendinopathy

Gastrocnemius tendinopathy is a condition that involves inflammation or degeneration of the gastrocnemius tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the back of the knee. This condition can result from overuse or repetitive activities, such as running or jumping. Symptoms of gastrocnemius tendinopathy include pain at the back of the knee, swelling, tenderness, and difficulty walking or bearing weight on the affected leg. Treatment options may include rest, physical therapy, and in some cases, surgical intervention.
