Eger, Hungary. The countryside of Hungary is very cheap, but few expats live in the rural areas unless theyâre in the wine industry. Most choose to live in Budapest, around Lake Balaton, or in one of the smaller cities like Eger or Pecs.
Insertional Achilles Tendinitis. Insertional achilles tendinitis occurs where the achilles tendon connects (inserts) to the heel bone. The injured or damaged parts of the achilles tendon can harden (calcify) and create bone spurs. Insertional achilles tendinitis can occur at any time, even in people who are not active.
The Achilles tendon, also known as the tendo Achilles, tendo calcaneus or calcaneal tendon, is the longest tendon of the body, formed by the union of the lower aspect of the calf muscles (gastrocnemius, soleus and the variably present plantaris muscle). The tendon inserts by way of a broad insertion on the calcaneus (heel bone) of the hindfoot. During development, the Achilles tendon is continuous with the broad flat tendon of the foot known as the plantar fascia (figure 1). Figure 1. Normal MRI of the Achilles tendon demonstrates this to be a well defined hypointense (dark) structure (arrow) inserting onto the calcaneus, thereafter becoming continuous with the plantar fascia (arrow).
