how do you deal with achilles tendinitis? i might be playing a little too much tennis and my heel hurts now ouch, i asked my podiatrist and she asked me to do a couple of calf raise stretches, but anything else?
see an orthopaedic surgeon
i would...if only they wouldn't charge so much :(
then I advise you to immobilise your ankle for a week or so ( with one of those blow up casts ) Use crutches
( this is what my surgeon did when I had severe tendonitis, tho mine was a plaster cast and for 4 weeks )
