Heel Pain - Information About Causes of Heel Pain

i would read up first and see a dr. treat the cause not the symptom. supposedly if your feet are messed up it will eventually lead to bad back pain. it's crap to have to pay big bucks to a dr but you prob should see one.

Information about common foot and ankle injuries and conditions

is it plantar fascitis. Do you get pain in the arch of your foot as well.

The majority of people are plantar flexed meaning that they are distributing more weight on their toes may be different in your case if its pain in your heels. Do you know downward dog and upward dog in yoga? these poses really are great for stretching the ankle as well as the foot.

I was looking into getting some heel inserts. I dont care how expensive it is, cuz quite frankly, Ive bought some cheap shit and it has done close to nothing.

Anyway, I may have heel (bone) spurs, so I wouldnt be surprised if the BEST kind of inserts for the worst type of heels would be my only choice.

Any suggestions?

It's tendonitis. There are several factors that can cause achilles tendonitis. The most common cause is over-pronation. Over-pronation occurs in the walking process, when the arch collapses upon weight bearing, adding stress on the achilles tendon.

Other factors that lead to achilles tendonitis are improper shoe selection . A heel cup or heel cradle elevates the heel to reduce stress and pressure on the achilles tendon. Hope this would help. visit Webstershoes.com
