Achilles tendon issues

2017-07-03 12:52:00
I have damaged both of my Achilles tendons and I am seeking advise on what I should do; Is there any point/need in visiting a doctor/physio? I will obviously rest them as much as possible, but walking around is unavoidable. With this in mind, I am seeking advice on how much rest I should give them or if there is anything I can do to support them?
