Achilles Tendonitis

Question

Achilles Tendonitis

Asked for Male, 27 Years

I have slight pain near Achilles tendon region while I walk. I had this pain from couple of days which was not severe. I played football today morning and the pain has increased now. There is no swelling yet. If I rest my heel and toe pointing upward and try to stretch I can feel the pain. Pain is slightly more while I keep walking. Could you suggest what I should be doing?
