Suggest Medication For Pain And Inflammation Around Right Achilles

I'm contiunously having shooting pain and inflammation around my right achilles.

Had an operation to decompress the effected area, but was unsuccessful.

Tried everything else including ultrasound, message, pain killers, rest and ice over the last 11 months.

Now having 3 acupuncture sessions and an EMG test on my nerve system and will then see my consultant for results.

My achilles tendon is in good condition and have been playing sports and running for the past 20 years...I'm now 37.

I also had key hole surgery on my left knee last year and managed to make a fulll recovery.
