Who should I see?

Thread Starter 
A little background - right at a year ago, I ripped the s**t outta my achilles tendon on my rt foot/ankle chasing Jared thru the house - I never got it loooked at then. Now I've developed this huge "bump" on the back of my foot, right above my heel. Late at nite, or if I've been on my feet all day, it really aches/throbs. Who should I see? A D.O, an ortho, or ?

TIA, KIM !!

I'd probably see a good podriatist for that.

I know in St. Louis we have foot and ankle specialists so that is what I'd look for if I had your condition.

First of all, I would probably consult my primary physician to assess the extent of the issues. Then from there they would probably send you to a good orthopod.

Good luck..... ROWWWWWWWWWWCH!
