What shoes have a small heel?
Regarding that, I would consider hot shower or foot bath (epsom salts) followed by bare foot standing, shifting weight front and back. You might feel your heels sink down and relax achille tendons this way.
Good advice ❤️
Lots of fuss around it but nothing about soleus & gastrocnemius muscle? One proper Sports Massage is all it needs.
Thank you for your contribution 🙏
