If you have heel pain, treat it immediately. The faster you start treatment, the faster it can heal. Treatments for heel pain generally include a regimen of stretches, exercises, icing, footwear changes and/or orthotic devices. Dont wait if you are experiencing pain. Get your feet assessed now!

Calcaneal apophysitis or Severs disease is a painful condition of the heel. It typically affects children between 8 to 14 years old because the heel bone is not fully developed. Repetitive stress from sports (soccer being the most common) can cause inflammation at the site of the growth plate.

Avoid tight and pointy shoes because they can cause ingrown toenails and calluses.
