Commonly practitioners may call this heel spurs or plantar fasciitis. Technically, that is a diagnosis that implies a bone deformity or inflammation is the cause of the condition. If either of these were true, then fixing it would be much easier than what you have been provided. In fact the list of possibilities at the heel for your pain includes, tendons, muscles, fat pads, bone, nerves and the list goes on. Therefore, accurate diagnosis is KEY! It may be ‘garden variety heel pain’ which involves the plantar fascia, but if it is not then you may well be trying for months to heal something and not get very far.
We have a simple handout on heel pain which you can access here. This gives you some of the basic’s around heel pain and some simple ‘at home’ management strategies to begin with.
From experience and the research, heel pain should be managed quickly and appropriately otherwise it can linger for much longer than it needs to.
