Suggest Treatment For Severe Heel Pain
Yes, thank you. I have had severe pain in my achilles heel for several days. I stopped running about two years ago due to calf problems. I am 69 years old and stay fit with alternate exercise. This is the third episode since the beginning of the year but this time it s been really difficult to stretch and ice my way out of the problem. Do I need an MRI. Having been using the exercises from your web site.
