What are the causes of Heel Pain?
Heel pain, resulting from various causes, can impact the posterior (near the Achilles tendon) or plantar aspect (bottom) of the heel. Often, it stems from improper biomechanics such as walking or running gait abnormalities that apply excessive stress on the heel, causing chronic irritation and inflammation.
