I tore my Achilles tendon in 2013 October when my foot went through a glass door. I had surgery to repair it but the pain has never gone. It's actually getting worse now. I have to tie bandage round it tightly just to get some relief. The more is severe on my ankle. I still have pins and needles on the side of my foot right up to my little toe with numbness as well. It's so unbearable. I was told it would take up to a year to completely heal because i damaged my nerves as well. It's been 6 years+.
