Talk to Orthopedic on Severe Pain In The Back Of The Right Heel

person-avatar

Asking for Self, Female, 42 years old, Islamabad

About 5 weeks back i started experiencing mild pain at the back of my right heel. Over the weeks the pain increased and has become quite severe now.

The pain increases: 1. After waking up in the morning and in the first 5-7 mins of walking. Even during the rest of the day, there is pain with walking. 2. If i'm sitting for 15-30 mins and then start walking, the pain starts. 3. Going done the steps in a normal manner has been almost impossible due to the severity of the pain for the last 3 weeks. I have to take one step at a time.

Investigation: Recently i had the X-Ray done for my heels and both heels have bone spurs. My heels had been hurting for a few years, but the pain had subsided over the last few months. The attached X-ray is of my right foot. The left foot also has a similar bone spur. Alhumdolilah there is no pain in the left foot. (No MRI/US done). Vit D = 32.9 ng/mL

The exact point of my pain is the point where the Achilles Tendon meets the heel bone. There

Looks to be an Halglunds deformity.

In terms of a conservative approach through orthotics, you could try

*silicone gel heel cups to offload the spur.
*a heel raise to relax the achilles tendon
