Achilles tendonitis.: As you describe it, you might have an injury in the lower part of your Achilles tendon. Whe in gets swollen, you need rest, ice, compression and feet elevation. To prevent injury, you need a rehabilitation program to make you tendon stronger. If it gets repeteadly injured, and without rehabilitation, you risk developing chronic pain and weakness.
