Heel pain

Heel pain has many causes. It can affect the posterior (back near the Achilles tendon), or plantar aspect (bottom) of the heel. Pain in the heel is generally a result of faulty biomechanics (walking or running gait abnormalities). Excessive stress is placed on the heel, which leads to chronic irritation and inflammation.
