Heel Spur

Don‘t just go for ANY TREATMENT... Go for the BEST TREATMENT
A Heel Spur is a bony outgrowth (calcium deposit) that forms on the underside of the heel bone, often associated with chronic strain or inflammation of the plantar fascia. The condition develops gradually due to repeated stress, poor footwear, or obesity. Heel spurs themselves may not always cause pain, but when combined with inflammation of nearby tissues, they can lead to sharp, stabbing pain, especially during the first steps in the morning. Homeopathy helps by reducing pain, dissolving calcified deposits, and preventing recurrence naturally, without surgery.
Causes
Heel spurs develop due to repeated micro-tears or strain on the heel tissues, prompting calcium deposits as the body’s healing response.
Common causes include:
- Chronic plantar fasciitis (inflammation of the heel ligament)
- Prolonged standing, walking, or running on hard surfaces
- Flat feet or abnormal foot mechanics
- Obesity is increasing stress on the heels
- Improper footwear with poor arch support
- Age-related degeneration of connective tissues
- Calcium metabolism imbalance
Symptoms – What It Means for Your Body
Symptom | Explanation |
Sharp, stabbing pain under the heel | Pressure of the bony spur against the inflamed soft tissues |
Pain on first steps after rest | Tight plantar fascia pulls on the heel bone |
Dull ache during the day | Continuous strain and standing worsen inflammation |
Tenderness or swelling around the heel | Local inflammation of the surrounding tissue |
Difficulty walking barefoot | Pressure on the heel surface intensifies pain |
Lifestyle & Care Tips
- Wear soft, cushioned shoes with proper arch support.
- Use heel pads or silicone insoles for pressure relief.
- Avoid walking barefoot on hard floors.
- Do gentle heel and calf stretches daily.
- Maintain a healthy weight to reduce stress on the heels.
- Apply a cold compress to ease inflammation.
- Avoid prolonged standing or sudden increases in activity.
