Brief Answer:
Can be minor tendon sprain or tendonitis.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
A weakened sensation in the core of achilles can be due to stress or a minor sprain in the area. Feeling of it being thicker can be due to an inflammation. This needs rest and ankle brace for proper support and healing. You will also need oral anti inflammatory medicines and supplements like Vitamin C, Glucosamine & Chondroitin, Bromelain, Minerals, etc. Doing a hot compress will also help.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
