An Achilles enthesophyte is a bony outgrowth that forms at the site of the Achilles tendon attachment to the heel bone (calcaneus). It often occurs in response to chronic stress or inflammation, typically associated with conditions like Achilles tendinopathy or plantar fasciitis. These outgrowths can cause pain and discomfort, especially during activities that involve running or jumping. Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, or in some cases, surgical intervention.

In severe cases, a healthcare provider may recommend corticosteroid injections or surgical removal of the enthesophyte.
An enthesophyte is a bony outgrowth that forms at the attachment of a tendon or ligament to bone.

Treatment may include rest, physical therapy, and in severe cases, surgery.
