A couple of weeks ago I strained my achilles tendon during a combat class- felt it overstretch. I ruptured (not completely, but enough to have my calf 3 times its size and turn purple!) this tendon around 14 years ago, but it has been fine since. I have been resting it and not training, but its not really getting any better and today I stepped back at work and felt it overstretch again, so now it is really sore again, dull ache.
What is the best thing to do at this point- ice? Heat? Rest? Keep moving? Stretches?
Any advice appreciated! Im fed up walking like a pirate with a peg leg, and keen to get back to training!
