Hi Lybrate user morning heel pain is due to plantar fascitis ,plantar fasciitis commonly causes stabbing pain that often occurs with your first steps in the morning. As you get up and move, the pain normally decreases, but it might return after long periods of standing or when you stand up after sitting. Visit near by physiotherapy clinic for proper drug free treatment.

Hi. Your high esr value is 30 and it is not very high. Although you have pain in legs and bones, may be due to low vit d level or less water intake. Try to do exercises for legs especially streching exercise along with vit d supplements daily. Try to visit your nearest orthopaedic doc or physiotherapist. Thank you.

Hi lybrate user ,The most common causes include injury, arthritis and normal wear and tear. Depending on the cause, you may feel pain or stiffness anywhere around the ankle. Your ankle may also swell, and you may not be able to put any weight on it. Usually, ankle pain gets better with rest, ice and over-the-counter pain medications.
thanks and regards
