Hi,
Your heel pain is very common.
Plantar fascitis is the likely cause.
Also you need to check vitamin d and b12, chances are high that they will.be low .
Use contrast bath technique for your feet, daily twice. Google it.
Also apply diclo gel and massage and stretch your soles. And while sleeping keep leg elevated on a pillow.
Get Vitamin d and b12 injections and your pain will reduce in a week.
Ordinary painkillers also help during this time.
