Calcaneal Spur

A calcaneal spur, also known as a heel spur, is a bony growth that forms on the underside of the heel bone.

What is it?

A calcaneal spur, also known as a heel spur, is a bony growth that forms on the underside of the heel bone. It often develops due to repetitive stress or strain on the foot and is commonly associated with plantar fasciitis, a condition that causes inflammation in the foot's arch.

Signs and Symptoms

  • Sharp pain in the heel, especially when standing or walking

  • Swelling in the heel

  • Difficulty walking or running

  • Pain that worsens after rest

Causes

  1. Repetitive Pressure:
    Overuse of the foot due to running or standing for long periods.

  2. Foot Mechanics:
    Abnormal foot structure or gait can cause excess stress on the heel.

  3. Obesity:
    Extra weight increases pressure on the feet.

  4. Improper Footwear:
    Shoes that don’t provide proper support can contribute.

  5. Aging:
    Wear and tear on the foot as you age increases the risk of spur formation.

Why One Should Not Take Patent Homeopathic Medicine

Patent remedies may temporarily relieve pain but do not address the underlying structural issues such as muscle or ligament strain. Proper management, including physical therapy, orthotics, and in some cases, surgery, is necessary to correct the condition.
