I have been experiencing heel pain for the past two months. What can I do to relieve the pain?

Asked by Female, 32 ยท 20 days ago

Heel pain for two months may be caused by plantar fasciitis (inflammation of the tissue under the heel), stress fractures, or strain from prolonged standing, excessive walking, or wearing improper footwear. To ease the pain, rest your foot, wear supportive cushioned shoes, do gentle calf and heel stretching exercises daily, and apply an ice pack on the sore area for about 20 minutes. You may also take painkillers like ibuprofen or paracetamol if needed. If your pain does not improve, gets worse, or makes it hard to walk, please consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment.
