Calcaneal Spur. Unbearable as days pass.

Hello Practo User, She is suffering from inflammation of her heel tissue.( Plantar fascitis). The cause is continuous pressure on the heels during the day..which causes severe pain early in the morning when she puts her foot down for first time. Calcaneal spur is an x-ray finding.. nothing to do with pain now... neither it will go away with injection or surgery,so don't bother too much with xray findings. Try a few things: Soft footwear (Rubber slippers) indoor and outdoor. Avoid standing for long time. Avoid climbing stairs. Elevate the leg over a pillow. Avoid local application. Pain medication if really needed. And have a lot of patience and sincerely follow the precautions....she will be alright. Regards.
