Suggest Medication For Constant Pain On My Right Heel

I've been having constant pain on my right heel for a couple of months now. It's very hard to put my foot flat on the floor when I get out of bed. Can I get some assistance in finding a podiatrist that excepts Medicare and Medicaid around Brooklyn, NY 11211?

hi,

thank you for providing the brief history of you.

A thorough clinical Musculoskeletal assessment is advised followed by an X-ray.

As you have pain in the heel, this looks to me like a calcaneal spur. Having a check with the x-ray should provide some input.

Also , undergoing physical therapy like - Therapeutic ultrasound therapy will help reduce the inflammation followed by which exercise for the feet will be thought and you should be fine.

in my Clinical practice most cases respond well to physical therapy and taking a proper soft cushion foot wear helps reduce the pain and inflammation too.
