Pain in Heels
I am suffering from heel pain from a long time. Specially when I wake up in the morning there is a severe pain. And it gradually decreases with my daily activity. But, again when I walk more or run it started hurting again.
I went to doctors three time in last one year. But, I didn't get benefited.
Currently I am taking calcium and vitamin d tablets with pain killer in doctor's prescription. But I am not getting any positive sign yet.
