Foot and Heel Pain
Heel pain can occur under the foot or behind the heel. Common problems that occur under the foot are plantar fasciitis
and bone spurs. Plantar fasciitis is usually painful on weight bearing after resting. This occurs due to inflammation and overstretching of the ligament under the foot. A heel spur is a bony growth that is not usually painful to touch. Pain behind
the heel may be caused by Achilles tendonitis and Severs disease. Achilles tendonitis is when the tendon becomes swollen and painful near the bottom of the foot and cause heel pain. Sever’s disease is usually found in young males and occurs due to stress on the growth plate in the heel bone. We can provide a variety of treatments to get your feet back on track.
