Ankle tendonitis recovery – can BPC‑157 oral help alongside physio?

Posted by holly763 in Healing & Recovery - 1 points, 0 comments.

Hey folks, tbh I’ve been dealing with a nagging right‑ankle tendonitis for about 6 weeks now. The physio says I need to keep the joint moving but avoid heavy loading, so I’m doing low‑impact bike work and daily eccentric calf stretches.

I read about the oral BPC‑157 arginate salt (500 µg twice a day) and thought maybe it could speed up the tendon healing while I stick to the rehab schedule. I’ve already tried it for a gut issue last month and only felt mild nausea for a day, nothing serious.

My question is: has anyone combined oral BPC‑157 with a structured physio protocol? Specifically, should I take the doses before or after my stretch/strength sessions, and do you think the timing matters for absorption? Also, any tips on managing that brief stomach upset would be great. Thanks! 👀🦵
