ankle tendons

I saw that Curt Schilling has a torn ankle tendon. A long time ago when i was playing basketball i was running and put my heel down first. I dont know how else to describe it but it hurts and it has something to do with the tendonds in the ankle. It swelled up like a sprained ankle and after about a week it goes back down. But they still sometimes hurt and i tape my ankles.
