Damaged Tendon pain?

    Hey All

    First time on this forum.

    Ive had heel pain for a few weeks, spoke to Doctor who said take ibuprofen daily for 2 weeks and rest as much as i can. I took a week off work and rested (self-employed courier), 2 weeks later still bad. Saw Doctor again who said ive damaged the tendons. Most likely need an operation or injection in the future, but try a few things first. He suggested getting a heel cup? Ive looked around and they seem to vary a lot. From £5 at Sports Direct, to £50+ custom made by the chiropractors.

    My question is, what type would i need? would one from JJB or Sports direct do what i need it to do (reduce the pain when i walk) without costing the earth?

    Thanks in advance :)

    Can anyone help me figure out if my feet are part of a bigger problem or just damaged?
