I have the same in my both ankles. Over the last year both my achilles tendons started hurting like crazy. Waking up they would be soar I can't easily walk.
I have been doing taekwondo for ages so jumping while on the heels is essential, it doesn't however strengthen the muscles as weights lifting does. I always find myself doing one or the other but not both–depending on whether where I live has a good tkd class. I'd prefer it over a classic gym.
2019 to 2023 I spent lifting while in 2023 and 2024 I had chance to go to taekwondo. Neither were consistent though. I would push it for three months then stop for three xD.
Going to tkd class last summer felt like torture. Coach and team doc recommended stretching and using foam roller plus drinking a lot of water. Nothing really helped.
Last week however things started changing after restarting gym.
Reading your story I have to link my pains to when I stopped lifting or generally training my leg muscles. I'm back to squatting which seems to help more than stretching, massages, and bands.
