Seek medical help : If you have an injury to your ankle, you are over using your Achilles’ tendon to help you ambulate. Treating the ankle along with the Achilles is needed. You require proper diagnosis and rehabilitation. I recommend seeing your doctor or podiatrist for this condition. Crutches or walking boot is needed to immobilize the ankle.
