I am 25 with normal weight. I am having heel pain from the past two days. Though not much severe, I can feel the discomfort while walking. Could anyone let me know the reason. And how can I treat it at home? How long should I wait for it heal before I look for a doctor? Thanks in advance.

Heel pain can be due to prolong standing, hard sole footwear, high heel footwear or due to any past injury. Cold compression using ice for 15 mins every 4-6 hrs relieves pain. Contact for further management and complete rehabilitation. Take care.

Dip your ankle in hot water for 10-15 mts, if pain persisted, consult a manual physiotherapist, who can glide your heel bones to give instant relief, GOOD LUCK.
