How To Cure Foot Pain?

I have a long standing problem with my achilles tendon and heal bone on my left foot. I got it from playing classic guitar (left foot fixed on a foot stool). I have been to a foot doctor and two acupuncturists. None of them have been able to help my condition. I have had it about 2.5 years now. I can barely walk becaue of all the foot pain.

a few of my patients have also benefited from platlet rich plasma injections but the option is expensive and needs trained hands to execute, local steroid injections also help.
my suggestion to you will be my friend to discuss the available modalities with your doctor and try
