Basic treatment for this is use of comfortable soft sole footwear , regular physiotherapy (eccentric calf streching) , hot water fomentation. You should use analgesic gel/spray and tablet as required. If this isn't helping you can try steroid/PRP injection.
Next Steps
Do regular physiotherapy and If not improving consult Ortho surgeon.
