Heel Pain Reasons
Heel Pain
Heel pain can be caused by a number of different conditions. Some of the most common causes of heel pain include:
- Plantar fasciitis: This is the most common cause of heel pain. It is caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick band of tissue that runs from the heel to the toes. Plantar fasciitis is usually felt as a sharp pain in the heel when first getting up in the morning or after sitting for a long period of time.
- Achilles tendonitis: The Achilles tendon is the largest tendon in the body and connects the calf muscles to the heel bone. Achilles tendonitis is caused by overuse or strain of the tendon and is typically felt as a dull ache in the back of the heel.
- Heel spurs: Heel spurs are bony growths that form on the heel bone. They are often caused by long-term plantar fasciitis or other conditions that put stress on the heel bone.
- Bursitis: Bursitis is inflammation of the bursa, a fluid-filled sac that cushions the joint. In the heel, bursitis can occur at the back of the heel or beneath the heel bone.
- Stress fractures: Stress fractures are small cracks in the bone that are caused by repetitive stress or overuse. They are more common in athletes or people who do high-impact activities.
- Sever’s disease: This is a condition that affects growing children and adolescents. It is caused by inflammation of the growth plate in the heel bone.
If you are experiencing heel pain, it is important to see a doctor or a podiatrist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.
