Hi there
You definitely need a physiotherapist to take care of your condition. Meanwhile, there are few things you can do at home to relax and relive in Pain.
First and foremost u need to give rest to your foot.
You can apply ice pack on Achilles tendon for 15 minutes twice a day.
Try to do stretching of Achilles maintaining pain-free stretch for 30 seconds thrice a day.
Heel lifts can be helpful too.
Eccentric exercises must be helpful.
