Suggest Treatment For Heel Pain In Both Feet While Walking
Question: I have been having pain in the heal of my foot for about 1 month thought it was a heal spur, just now walking upstairs hit shoe wrong. Now cant bear weight and have pain from heal to arch and feel like second and third toes want to cramp
Brief Answer:
Can be a bone injury.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The pain in the heel that you are having is likely to be due to plantar fasciitis or a heel spur. After the injury the inability to bear weight and acute pain can be due to a bone injury in the area.
It is best to take rest, avoid weight bearing on the foot and consult an orthopedician for an examination and X-ray of the foot. This will help in detecting the exact cause. Till then take a mild pain killer after meals and keep the foot elevated on two pillows.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
