How to treat achilles pain?

I totally get it, that sharp pain behind the heel makes even walking to the bathroom feel like a mountain task. Rest as much as possible and try putting ice on it for fifteen minutes.

My doctor told me muscle and tendon pains can sometimes feel worse if thyroid levels are fluctuating. Please keep up with your regular blood checks and show this heel pain to a specialist if it doesn't improve.

Make sure you are drinking enough water and eating calcium-rich foods to help your tendons heal. Avoid standing for long hours in the kitchen while this pain is active.

Give your feet some deserved rest! Wearing shoes with good heel support instead of flat slippers helped me recover from this much faster.

Avoid running or jumping completely and apply ice packs thrice a day. See a doctor if it swells up.
