Achillies problem

I injured my Achillies two years ago. Went through rehab and took cortizone shots. Now two years later I have alot of calcium build up and still ALOT of pain. Dr. says I need surgery to remove build up. Has anyone had this done and how long was the rehab and did it help?

Thanks

Glen

The Silipos® Soft Sock™ is a two-layer sock carefully designed with a proprietary gel pad molded in between the two fabric layers at the sole to absorb and reduce friction, abrasion, shear forces, and moisture away from the foot. It is recommended for the diabetic, rheumatoid or insensitive foot.
