Heel Pain
While there are many causes for heel pain, it is important to have your pain assessed and diagnosed so that serious causes can be ruled out, and the specific cause can be treated. Because many of us spend most days on our feet, a small injury can quickly escalate in severity – and pain. As the damage to the heel worsens, so does the recovery time, pain levels and the risk for long-term complications. This affects our ability to move, work, and do the things we enjoy.
