I have the same problem and have had it for years, the pain comes and goes.
Sometimes I swear I can hear the tendon pulling.
4 or 5 years ago, a doctor made me insoles. Gave me about 3 cortisone shots... very painful and some novicane shots. This treatment went on for about 6 weeks or so. I was pain free for a long time afterward but in the past year it is slowly coming back... not as bad as before but...
He told me one option was for him to snip the tendon that is the problem if the shots didn't help. When the shots helped I never explored the other option.
