It is always so difficult to heal feet issues as it's impossible to commit to long-term disuse. I do have a few questions and it would help me to be most specific to your issue. How is your weight? What types of therapy did you use and for what duration? How is the pain if you palpatate the tendon? Is the pain altered with large range of motion or with sudden movement? Are your ankles stiffer in the morning or as the day wears on? Do you have knots around the tendon? Do you hear a popping sound, similar to but different than a cracking as in an adjustment? How effective is the ice in relieving the pain? Have you used any natural products on the tendon; arnica is on my mind. Are you presently doing any exercises for your ankles. I know this seems tedious but I want to be effective as oppossed to just dumping out a lot of misdirected suggestions. Glad you are on this great site. I will be more dilligent in my responses as my computer is not back on line. Look forward to your clarifications. Hang in there, with some time and deliberate attention, this too shall pass.
