Did the achillies issue originate from running?
Running with tight calf muscles places more stress on the achillies tendon.

Are you looking at movement patterns?
Working up &downstream?

What changed/ happened in January to fire things up?
Are you seeing improvements with what you are doing during PT?

Bursitis occurs when a bursa is irritated from frequent pressure and it becomes inflamed. May be time for a new pair of shoes during the day or while training.

Lateral malleolus is a stabilizing factor of the ankle joint.
