Hi thanks for your query and welcome to lybrate. I am Dr. Akshay from fortis hospital, new delhi. Heel pain is normally due to inflammation of plantar fascia, especially if x rays and other investigations are normal. My advise to you will be: - ice packs to be applied 3-4 times in a day - ankle, heel stretch and eccentric strengthening ex initially under supervision of a physical therapist is important - footwear modification: soft cushioned sports shoes to be worn till your pain completely subsides or wear shoes with soft silicon insoles - anti-inflammatory medication which suits you. If it does not improve with this management, then we will have to look for injections to give relief to you. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance.
