Heel pain

Heel pain can be caused mainly by:

• Plantar fasciitis
• Calcaneal Spur
• Overloading in the area

What is plantar fasciitis?

The plantar fascia is a thick band of tissue that runs across the sole of the foot, from the heel to the metatarsals (under the toes).
It connects the heel bone to the toes, thus maintaining the plantar arch and absorbing the energy produced by each step.

When this band of tissue becomes inflamed, it causes what is known as plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis causes pain when walking, especially in the morning when starting to walk.
It is also common after prolonged standing, or resuming activity after sitting.

If you want to know more details about plantar fasciitis, we recommend this post, dedicated exclusively to this pathology.

What is calcaneal spur?

A heel spur is an irregular growth of the heel bone in the shape of a claw.
This calcification is uncomfortable when walking, when resting the heel area on a surface, and causes pain because the surrounding area becomes inflamed.
The pain usually appears in the form of prickling, and also in the inner part of the heel.

We also have a post dedicated specifically to this pathology and you can read it here. But if this is your case, don’t worry, we have developed the perfect solution so that the spur does not bother you when walking (we tell you about it at the end of the post).

And as for heel overload, we have all suffered it at some point in our lives.
Being overweight, prolonged exercise without being used to it, walking or running for longer than is usual in our daily lives, and even carrying excessive weight for a prolonged period of time, can lead to heel overload.

This will result in inflammation and the subsequent onset of pain.

Causes of occurrence

The causes of the appearance of these 3 pathologies are various and some of them are specific, but in general they include:

• Overweight
• Certain foot shapes, such as pes cavus or flat feet
• Incorrect weight distribution when walking.
  Not using insoles when we should and not walking correctly distributing the weight in the footprint in an adequate way.
• Intense and prolonged exercise that can produce overload or tension in the fascia.
  Impact sports such as soccer or running are especially harmful for these pathologies.

Treatment

As for treatment, physiotherapy is available, with exercises and stretching to relieve tension and inflammation in the area.
The use of analgesics would only be recommended under medical prescription.

And above all and most important is to correct the causes that lead to its appearance: and this happens to make a correct distribution of our weight when walking.

In the case that our heel pain was produced by overweight, it would be convenient to lose those extra kilos.
And if our problem is that we practice impact sports, we can start moderating a little practice along with the use of appropriate templates and see the evolution.
It is rarely necessary to give up our favorite sport but it is important to understand what is causing this pain.

In most cases an Insole or heel pad will be necessary. Basically to correct our footprint and make a correct distribution of our weight when walking.
This will reduce tension in the area, overloading and unloading of the heel.
