How does a heel spur occur?
The most common cause is plantar fasciitis. Other causes of heel spurs include intense physical activity, excess weight, aging, or flat feet. Heel spurs occur when the ligament calcifies and forms a triangular bone in the heel. This condition causes severe pain in the heel, especially when getting up and standing after a period of rest.
Treatment of heel spurs
We believe that the treatment of heel spurs should be based on an accurate diagnosis by a specialized podiatrist who will recommend the most effective treatment based on your characteristics and condition. Depending on the severity of the spur, it can be treated with more conservative treatments such as the use of customized insoles that relieve the pressure on the heel area and physiotherapy.
At Clínica Poyatos we recommend leaving surgery as a last resort and always treating the problem from the root with a more conservative than aggressive approach.
