Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain pain in heel along with tenderness of skin on back of thigh can be due to causes like Planter Fascitis, Achilles Tendonitis, Heel spurs, Arthritis, Haglund's Deformity, Tarsal tunnel syndrome, brusitis etc..

I would suggest you to consult a Podiatrist or an Orthopedician and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like x ray, MRI scan, Fluoroscopy can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..

You can be advised to take medications like anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen or Naproxen, muscle relaxants, orthotics to support the feet and put inside shoes..
You can also be advised Physiotherapy and also wear proper fitting shoes..
Warm or cool compresses can be advised depending upon the cause..
Heel cups can also be advised..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
