A desk hit my achilles tendon, how can I tell if I really injured it?
A desk leg was pushed into my achilles tendon and now it hurts slightly when stretched or walking. The pain is minor, and there is no swelling, does that mean I can safely say I did not really injur it? Or can it still be torn?

No, if you had cut it you would not be able to walk. It may be bruised so get some ice and elevate it.
if you can walk, you are ok.
I can assure you if you tear the achilles tendon, you will know it. It is easier to tear it with quick ill planned moves, not a desk. But, you can have a test to check the electrical waves. (expensive)
