(rest, ice, compression and elevation) regime is something proven to be effective. Unfortunately as with many injuries, healing can be a time consuming process, but this regime helps reduce the recovery time. I have included a link to an article on the prevention and treatment of achilles tendon injuries from this amazing site on sports injuries: http://www.thestretchinghandbook.com/archives/achilles-tendonitis-pt2.php It is important to adequately treat the injury now, and to adapt a preventative strategy afterwords through stretching and exercise! I hope this helps, and best of luck! Achilles tendon injuries are really common, and the R.I.C.E. (rest, ice, compression and elevation) regime is something proven to be effective.
