Achilles tendon problem?

For a little over two weeks now, I've had pain in the achilles area. There's a small bump about 2 1/2 inches up from the back of my heel that's painful to touch. When I point my toes up, there's a burning sensation and I can feel something pulling. I've tried ice & rest, with no relief. Wearing any shoes makes it worse. I haven't been seen by a doctor yet, which type would be my best choice or should I even be concerned?
