What is a heel spur?
please tell me also about the surgery
Answers:
Heel spurs are commonly seen in patients who have a history of foot pain caused by plantar fasciitis. In the setting of plantar fasciitis, heel spurs are most often seen in middle-aged men and women, but can be found in all age groups. The heel spur itself is not thought to be the primary cause of pain, rather inflammation and irritation of the plantar fascia is thought to be the primary problem. The diagnosis of a heel spur is made when an X-ray shows a hook of bone protruding from the bottom of the foot at the point where the plantar fascia is attached to the heel bone. Contact your doctor for details of the surgery regarding your personal case.
It's a calcium growth on the heel bone. They make an incision and scrape off the growth. Why don't you try cortisone injections first? They reduce the inflamation and work as good as surgery in many cases.
My wife had the same problem, she used to be miserable with the heel pain, ever since she bought these shoes, she is no pain any more.
She bought a pair of sports shoes from www.zcoil.com.
She is walking fine and no pain at all.
