Pain in back of the heel
Pain in the back and side of the heel where Achilles tendon meets heel. I have this pain for a couple of yrs now. X-Ray shows no bone spur, and Uric acid level is within limits. Have been doing hamstring, quads and calf muscle stretches for a while but no help.

Get down on all fours with your hands under your shoulders on the floor. Walk your hands forward slightly on the floor. Spread your fingers apart to allow for a broad base of support.
