Can you have problems with your Peroneal tendon as a result or secondary of An Achilles tendon rupture?

Absolutely, the Achilles is only the main injury or the most serious injury, but you also got lots of other tendon and muscle tears and pulls all over the foot and ankle area when your Achilles went out. If the Achilles is damaged, it will probably swell at times and that is bound to cause discomfort to the area including the peroneal tendon.

How does a hinged cam walker work and aid during Achilles tendon healing?
I have experience with the VACOcast Achilles boot (www.vacocast.com) which is hinged and can be fixed in 30 or 15 degrees of plantar flexion (toes pointing downward in order to reduce tension on the Achilles tendon). When the ankle is fixed in plantar flexion, also known as equinus, it allows the injury to heal without risk of rupture or re-rupture. As the tendon heals, the orthopedic surgeon will gradually reduce the amount of equinus until the ankle is at neutral, or 90 degrees. This safely increases the amount of tension and avoids unwanted shortening of the Achilles tendon.

Why should boxers or fighters hold back punches?
Because violence cannot be resolved with violence. It makes things worse.The ability to hold back punches when you are angry takes incredible amounts of self control and willpower. If you are able to do that then it shows that you are the better person.Harming others is not a very nice thing to do and has consequences for both parties. Assault is also illegal. The only time it is really acceptable to harm someone else is in self defence if you believe your life or the life of someone else is in danger.
