I just want to walk again lol. Tore mine playing ball and I don’t think I’m play again ever
Anyone here torn their Achilles?

Your Achilles will be more resilient after it heals. Playing bball you may have tight calf muscles. Rolling them out helps a lot. I wouldn't stop playing bball thoug..injuries happen
Never tore mine but I've gotten 4 lengthening surgeries as a kid. Just seeing the word makes me uncomfortable. Whenever I reference it I can't even use the term, call it the "A word." Almost like a dude who blows out his knee can't watch videos of others doing so. My shyts are aching just talking about it
nah but I had two female teammates tear theres in the span of a few months, one of whom I ended up dating
terrible injury, took her about 4.5 months post-surgery to walk again without a boot or anything like that
She was walking with a boot after maybe a month tho

Tore mine and got the operation.
Ran a 5k 3 months later. Was able to play basketball 9 months later. 12 months I was running and jumping at 100% with 0 fear (which is the biggest issue honestly).
I would definitely get the surgery. Even if it 'heals' using the nonsurgical method, your odds of reinjuring yourself go up exponentially.

One of homies tore his playing ball. Dude ballooned in weight when he was recovering.
Yeah its tough but we are pretty much the same age. @The Infamous said that his friend gained weight and I forgot that I gained about 25 pounds as well..stay active

I don’t like seeing post like this. I’m 37 and I’ve started back hooping. I’ve never had a major injury.

After surgery is was about 4-5 months I think. It was a long time ago so I could be wrong. Make sure you do everything they tell you in physical therapy

I tore mine playing. I Had broken my nose, fractured my wrist, broken two fingers. Figured the torn Achilles was the universe trying to tell me its time to hang it up permanently
