Achilles Calcific Tendinitis

Hello Doctor, I am a football player and had suffered an injury in my Achilles tendon of both of my legs a few months back. Initially, I took a few days of rest and resumed playing once there was no pain. However, I again got an injury on my right Achilles tendon, and this time the pain was so severe that I was unable to put weight on my right heel. After undergoing X-ray and ultrasound, I have been diagnosed with Achilles calcific tendinitis. Could you please advise on: 1. How long does recovery typically take in such cases? 2. Will I be able to return to competitive football?

Tennis elbow and plantar fasciitis

I had problems of tennis elbow a year back, took medication, it was better but pain comes back once every 2-3 weeks, but most of the time goes without medication. Now since last 1 month I am having pain in heels, which lasts whole day, like plantar fasciitis. In general also I keep getting pain in joints like thumb, wrist etc. Got the RA factor test done, but the reports are normal. Vit D is slightly low, B12 borderline low. No other issue with blood report. What can be done here. I feel in general my tendons are getting weak, any supplements that can help?
