About us:
Heelspurs are pointed, bony outgrowths of the heel that cause soft-tissueinflammation. • A heel spur is a pointed bony outgrowth ofthe heel bone (the calcaneus bone). • The build-up of calcium deposits under theheel bone causes heel spurs. •Heel spurs under the sole (plantar area) are associated with plantar fasciitis(inflammation of the plantar fascia ligament at the bottom of the foot). • Heel pain is a common symptom of heel spurs. • Heel spurs and plantar fasciitis can occuralone or be related to underlying diseases. • Heel spurs are treated by anti-inflammatorymedications, orthotics, and other measures that decrease the associatedinflammation and avoid reinjury. A heel spur is a pointed bony outgrowth of thebone of the heel (the calcaneus bone). Chronic local inflammation at theinsertion of soft-tissue tendons or plantar fascia is a common cause of bonespurs (osteophytes). Heel spurs can be located at the back of the heel or underthe heel beneath the arch of the foot. Heel spurs at the end of the heel are frequentlyassociated with inflammation of the Achilles tendon (tendinitis) and causetenderness and heel pain made worse while pushing off the ball of the foot.
