Thanks for your consultation at HCM !
I have gone through your case history and being your physcian i do understand your health concerns...
Coming towards your case straightly i think you have deveoped abscess in your left heel that is giving you sharp pain while you walk. But it has to be confirmed by your attending doctor , so better get your consultation done and if it comes to be abscess then it has to be drained followed by antiobiotics and pain killers ...
Meanwhile avoid too much walk and wear soft shoes. you can use ACETAMINOPHIN to relieve pain ...
Hope your question is appropriately answered if u still have any feel free to ask any time directly over my profile..
Regards and stay happy and safe
