The main symptom of an Achilles tendon rupture is the sudden onset of sharp pain in the heel. Additionally, a snap or "pop" may be heard as the tendon breaks. Some people describe the pain as a hit or kick behind the lower leg. There is difficulty walking immediately. It may be difficult to push off or stand on the toes of the injured leg.
Heel pad syndrome is a pain that occurs in the center of the heel. [1] There are many causes, but a mechanical etiology is most common: risk factors include obesity. [1] Other conditions with similar symptoms include plantar fasciitis. [1] Treatment includes rest, pain medication, and heel cups. [1] It becomes more common with age. [1]
