Autologous Blood Injection to Achilles Tendon
You have been referred to have an autologous blood injection to your Achilles tendon.
The commonest reasons for this are having tendinopathy or a partial tear in the Achilles tendon.
The procedure involves taking some blood from a vein in your arm (similar to a blood test) and then injecting it directly into the abnormal part of the tendon, using an ultrasound scanner to ensure accurate placement.
