After 2 cortisone shots and wearing orthotics (Spencos) for a few months, my heel pain is greatly decreased but I have some ankle and Achilles tendon pain. It sounds similar to what you described. I figured it was from the orthotic, since my foot pronates somewhat. I found that icing helped but the biggest thing was stretching my calf. My calf felt very tight and when I stretched it out several times a day, my ankle pain decreased. Good luck.
