During a game I suddenly felt the tightening of the portion near my achilles tendon, near the heal. I ignored the pain and played on. When I arrived home I had it massaged a little and  forgot all about because of the workload I had that day although the discomfort was still there.

I went to bed still sore but when I woke up the pain was already unbearable. I can't walk without limping. What do you guys think happend? And reccommendations to relieve the pain?

Now I know what's wrong. It took me more than 3 months to realize that it's achilles tendonitis. don't ignore the symptoms if ever you feel it.

anti inflammatory drugs sir, and rest, pag hindi po nawala, baka po operahan, consult po kayo sa orthopedic surgeon, hope this helps

Dark,
  I had same experience playing BBAll. 10yrs ago. MIne was I pulled the tendon out of the hill. I had a reattachment surgery and was out of comission for 2 years. NO PLAY, I only thought was a tendonitis first, but get some xray, it will get worse if not correted timely.. but if you can raise the front of ur feet up and down fully i hope it is only a tendonitis..

Only today have I read this reply. Yes poordoy, a friend of mine, a doctor, suffered the same fate as you. He snapped his achilles tendon and required surgery. Everyone who was there would swear they heard a very loud snap, like a branch was snapped in two.

you need to rest your foot...(thats bad about injury, matagal ang rehab period), kasi pag hindi mo ni-rest properly yan they'll come back and get even worse...sometimes u can't see them on xray...you can ask kung pwede scan para malaman mo yung extent. you just rest and painkillers and important rehab...

pres,
   theres a lot of truth to that, but i wonder, u see when you are young, little things dont bother u that much, but when u get older u get so sensitive to every bothering things... just seems like the problem is LESS motivation in the head, thus letting out less energy.
thus weakens the body...
