About Heel pain
Your symptoms can provide clues about the possible causes of your heel pain.
If you experience sharp pain between your arch and heel that worsens when walking, it may indicate Plantar Fasciitis. Pain in the back of the heel, ankle, and calf is commonly associated with Achilles Tendonitis. Redness, swelling, and a dull aching pain in the heel often indicate Bursitis. Sharp pain in the heel, accompanied by swelling, difficulty walking, and a popping or snapping sound during the injury, may be indicative of a heel fracture or a rupture of the Achilles tendon.
Our podiatrist is skilled in diagnosing heel pain and can provide you with treatment options tailored to your specific condition. Seeking professional assistance will help determine the underlying cause and guide you towards appropriate treatments for relief and recovery.
