thanks for your question :
it was better if you had told us about your job and which shoes you wear, and do you have any other symptoms like fever chills, I think this is retro calcaneal bursitis which is inflammation of bursa at the back your ankle due to tight shoes and multiple friction its job related, or you have other symptoms we should rule out infection and inflammatory arthritis.
bursitis need rest, prevent friction by shoes and Non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs like Olfen caps 100 mg 1*2.
I hope it helps
