Diagnosed with tendinitis but not sure if correct.

Posted , 4 users are following.

I was skateboarding about a month ago and kicked my board away down some stairs and landed mostly on my left heel, i had imideate pain and hurt to push/walk. my initial thought was a really bad heel bruise but then i thought it was a fracture about a week after.

I saw a doctor last week and they said i had achilles tendonitis which is not where the pain is at all, its more like planter tendon that is painfull.

It is just a slight ache when i putt pressure in certain areas of the heel.(mostly bottom of the foot/ side of the heel, clossest to planter connection)
