In reply to Sharp:
Hi guys,
First things first thanks for all the advice i haven't been on over the weekend so only just picked it up.
With regards to your post Ben, the area that is burning is exactly as you said where the achilese joins the foot (just as my foot starts curving under).
I have been looking at a lot of advice from online, and haven't started the stretches but have tried the calf raises which haven't really helped.
I will look into the stretches some more and progress on to these!
Thanks once again for all the advice, the problem is I live in Crookes in Sheffield (on top of a massive hill) so can't really rest it because, according to some websites, walking uphill aggrevates the tendons.
Will start an icing ritual as well hopefully be able to shake it soon!
Thanks again
Al
