What Causes Recurring Lump On The Back Of Right Heel?
My husband had a lump for raised area on the back of right heel. Hurts to stand or walk for long periods of time. Has been going on and off for years. May be due to getting his heel caught in a door some years ago. Is quite painful at time expecially after a long day at work standing up. It stays stickng out like a raised band on the back of his heel.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such condition could be due to arthritis, in differential diagnosis it could be nonspecific swelling and it may be infection, for the pain Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg can be tried and for right diagnosis better to see the orthopedic surgeon there may needs x-ray study hope this information helps.
