If it's is Achilles tendonitis, You will have to wear a heel in the shoes to relax the calf muscles. Also focus on the calf stretching exercises which will help relax the muscle too. These things are more important than the pain medication that you've been taking.
If the pain is not subsiding beyond 3 weeks, an Injection in the area of pain can be tried
