When a patient presents with a problem such as you have described, If I am not clear on the cause, I will send them for a MRI.
It is impossible to tell if your discomfort is coming form the achilles or peroneal tendons.
I recommend you see a podiatrist for further evaluation.

Lined with soft fabric on both sides, this ~2mm thick SiliposŪ proprietary gel pad is an excellent cushion to help relieve the burning sensation and discomfort of the five metatarsal heads of the foot (the ball-of-foot) by protecting the ball of foot from repeated friction and abrasion with the shoes.
