    Ruptured Achilles tendon?

    Hello guys I am new to this site I have been reading and find it very interesting.

    My question is: 3 week ago a had an accident playing soccer. I was about to run when suddenly I felt a sharp pain in the back of my ankle and I also heard a noise like it cracked or popped. I was in a lot of pain for the first 3 days then, it started being less but I still have swelling in the back of my ankle and can't walk normally or stand on my toes.

    Since I don't have insurance I went to a private clinic to get it checked out and had x-rays taken but doctor said that it was not a torn tendon, she said if it was I wouldn't be able to walk.

    but now i am really concerned because it has been 3 weeks and I don't
    get any better. Could it be that the doctor was wrong and indeed I do have a rupture?

    Please! any advise is welcome.
