Pain in the heel can result from a number of factors.
Abnormalities of the skin, nerves, bones, blood vessels, and soft tissues of the heel can all result in pain.
Because of walking and daily movement, we are always at risk for injury or trauma to the heel area. Common causes of pain in the heel include blisters and corns.
Plantar fasciitis, inflammation of the “bowstring-like” tissue in the sole of the foot stretching from the heel to the front of the foot, is one condition commonly associated with heel pain.
Sometimes diseases that affect other areas of the body, like peripheral vascular disease or arthritis, can also result in pain in the foot or heel.
Sever’s disease is a cause of heel pain in children that results from injury to the growth plate of the heel bone. Treatments for heel pain depend on the particular cause
