Achilles Rupture: Please seek ER or urgent care evaluation now. You are describing a rupture of the Achilles' tendon that will likely require surgical reattachment. In addition to being a sports medicine MD, I personally suffer from sports overuse related Achilles tendinitis and chronic myositis of the calf muscles. I experienced a partial Achilles rupture. Ice, elevate and splint your leg and seek immediate care!
