How Do I Know If I Have Achilles Tendonitis Or

How do I know if I have achilles Tendonitis or Bursitis of the heel. Its happened a couple times when I wake up I can't hardly walk. I have a pain in the back right above the heel. It lasts about 2 days then goes away. I do bootcamp almost everyday. I am 51 years old and this started about 3 months ago when it first flared up. I woke up this morning and can hardly walk. I'm at work pulling my toes back trying to stretch it. Do I need to get a achilles tendonitis brace. Do I need to worry about a rupture since it has happened more times recently?
Thanks Rob
