You might experience pain, soreness or tenderness anywhere in your heel, but the most common areas are underneath it or the back of it. There are many different health conditions that can cause heel pain, including plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinitis. Heel pain can make it difficult to walk and participate in daily activities. It’s important to see your healthcare provider to help you determine the exact cause of pain in the heel of your foot. Most heel conditions improve with nonsurgical treatments, but your body will need time to recover. Why is the bottom of my heel hurting? Problems that cause bottom-of-heel pain include: Bone bruise (contusion): Stepping on a hard, sharp object can bruise the fat padding underneath your heel. You might not see discoloration, but your heel will feel tender when you walk and sometimes at rest. Stress fracture: A stress fracture may cause pain all along the bottom, side and back of your heel. Plantar fasciitis: Plantar fasciitis is the most common cause of heel pain. It occurs when the fascia — connective tissue that runs along the bottom (plantar surface) of your foot — tears or stretches and becomes inflamed. People who run and jump a lot are more likely to develop this painful condition. Treadmills and hard surfaces (like concrete) for exercise or work are common irritants. Heel spurs: Chronic plantar fasciitis can cause a bony growth (heel spur) to form on your heel bone. Heel spurs aren’t usually painful, although some people have pain. How do I get rid of the pain in my heel? Most problems that cause heel pain get better over time with nonsurgical treatments. Heel pain treatment focuses on easing pain and inflammation, improving foot flexibility and minimizing stress and strain on your heel. These treatments include: Pain relievers: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) combined with ice packs can ease pain and swelling. Stretching exercises: Your healthcare provider can show you how to do heel stretching exercises for tight tendons and muscles. Taping: You can use athletic or medical tape to support your foot arch or heel. Physical therapy: Massage, physical therapy and ultrasound therapy can break up scar tissue (adhesions). These treatments may reduce inflammation and provide heel pain relief. Heel pain often improves over time with nonsurgical treatments. Your healthcare provider can determine what’s causing the pain. Your provider can also show you stretching exercises and recommend orthotics and other methods if needed. Many people try to ignore heel pain and continue with activities that make the problem worse. But it’s essential to give your body time to recover. Otherwise, you may develop chronic heel pain that sidelines you for an extended time. The longer you have heel pain, the harder it is to treat effectively, so it’s important to get evaluated.  | |
