Tendons are tough cords of tissue that connect muscles to bones.

Pain, swelling, tears, and inflammation of tendons including the back
of the ankle (Achilles),

tendon problems is higher if you:

Swelling of the tendon (tendinitis) and tendon rupture (breakage) have
also happened in patients
who take fluoroquinolones who do not have the above risk factors.
●
Other reasons for tendon ruptures can include:
●
physical activity or exercise
●
kidney failure
●
tendon problems in the past, such as in people with rheumatoid
