Limitation due to decrease in the strength of calf/Achilles tendon/foot, the mean score was 8.1. Limitation due to progressive tiredness in the calf/Achilles tendon/foot, the mean score was 8.1. Limitation due to stiffness in the calf/Achilles tendon/foot, the mean score was 8. Limitation due to pain in the calf/Achilles tendon/foot, the mean score was 8. Limitation during activities of daily living, the mean score was 7.7 Limitation when walking on uneven ground The mean score was 7.9 Limitation when walking quickly up stairs or uphill The mean score was 7.95. Limitation during activities that including running, the mean score was 7.9. Limitation during activities that including jumping, the mean score was 7.9.
