Achilles: Pain is usually a sign that something is wrong. You may well be overdoing it . See your surgeon so he can evaluate his/her surgery and make sure all is well.

Post Achilles Surg: Depends on how long it lasts. If it is short lived, you are probably stretching out the scar tissue, and that is fine. If it lasts for several days, you are over using the weakened tendon and i would analyze your rehab program. Dr rich blake.
