To pull or strain the Achilles tendon, one typically engages in activities that involve sudden acceleration or deceleration, such as sprinting, jumping, or abrupt changes in direction without proper warm-up. This can lead to overstretching or tearing of the tendon, often accompanied by severe pain, swelling, and a feeling of being "kicked" in the heel. It’s important to note that intentionally pulling the Achilles tendon can cause serious injury, and any such activities should be approached with caution and proper technique. If you suspect an injury, seek medical attention promptly.
