I am dealing with an Achilles Tendon issue right at this moment. Diagnosis started with an Ultrasound which indicated a tear. The MRI showed no tear, rather a severe inflammation and bone spurs in my heel which are the most likely cause of the inflammation.
I have an individualized treatment plan put together by a Physical Therapist based on what I can do and it changes week to week.
My recommendation is to find an MD and a PT who can work with you to find the root cause and fix it.
