Thanks for your query

I'm Dr Sudhir Kumar

I have gone through your query and understand your concern. Achilles tendinitis ( strain) pain is likely to be resolved by rest and analgesic such as ibuprofen. Vitamin B and C is help in recovery. High heel shoes can be beneficial. For rest slab/ splint can be wore(applied).

You can discuss with your doctor about it.

Hope your query get answered. If you have any clarification then I will be happy to help you.

Wishing you a good health.
Take care.
