Heel pain is an extremely common complaint, and there are many potential causes, ranging from conditions that affect the actual heel bone, like a bruise or stress fracture, to conditions that affect structures near it, like plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendonitis.
Heel pain can result from a simple or more serious injury, or a chronic condition. Zeroing in on the cause will help your healthcare provider select the right treatment.
