Heel Spur

Heel Spur

Small, bony growths on the heel are called heel spurs. An inflammation of the plantar fascia, the ligament that joins the heel bone to the toe bones, can result in the development of a spur.

TREATMENTS

Heel spurs can cause pain, but over-the-counter drugs like ibuprofen or acetaminophen might help.

When necessary, therapy may involve deep tissue massage or ultrasounds from a physical therapist. Shoulder discomfort or plantar fasciitis may benefit from this.

To lessen discomfort and inflammation in the soft tissues surrounding the bone spur, your doctor could advise administering a corticosteroid injection to the troublesome location.

When osteoarthritis has resulted in significant damage and deformity, bone spurs may be surgically removed or treated as part of a joint replacement or repair procedure.
