Pain in heel bone
Hello,
Its been a month i jumped from a height of 4 foot and felt a pain in my right leg , Heel bone.
Ignored the pain initially but then slowly and steadily the pain has just kept increasing and now pains more than often specially after i woke up in morning.
There is no swelling or any issues while walking but i can sense a pain somewhere always.
When i press it with my hand unless i apply pressure it doesnt pain.
I think scientifically we call that area as Calcaneus..
Please if i can be suggested if this needs treatment?
Regards,
Abhay

There may be some swelling which is not noticable.. ultrasound therapy will help you in this for I think 10 days.. and for precaution sake just keep your foot in warm water for at least 15 mins. with some salt in it
Next Steps
simple calf stretching to release tension from Achilles tendon
Health Tips
as I told dip your foot warm water for 15 mins
