Hello,
The treatment depends on how long you were having the achillies problems?
In general, for tendinitis try this:
-REST!!!
-ice
-drink a lot
-stretch
-keep doing a light activity such as walking or cycling
-avoid milk-products for a couple of days
If you were having this injury for a longer time, I recommend that you contact a physio/trainer to get some extra treatment (ultrawave, shockwaves, etc.)
Take care
Pat

Try putting heel lifts in you shoes - it helped me. In some people dairy promotes inflammation. A food allergy test will help to determine foods to avoid.
