Our
foot is made up of 26 bones, 33 joints, and more than 100 tendons.
The heel is the biggest bone in your foot. Heel pain is very common.
The sufferer tipically feels pain either under heel or behind it
(Achilles tendinitis). Achilles tendon connects to heel bone.
Heel pain can be severe and it is seldom a well-being risk. Heel pain is
typically mild and typically vanishes on its own; then again,
sometimes the pain may hold on and get to be constant (long period).
The human heel provide rigid support for the weight of body. Heel
pain may caused by arthritis, infection, auto immune problem trauma,
neurological problem, or some other systemic condition.
Pain
comes on gradually, without any injury to the affected portion. In
many cases, pain is under the foot, toward the front of heel.
Post-static dyskinesia (pain after rest) - symptoms tend to be worse
just after getting out of bed in the morning, and after a period of
rest during the day.
Heel
pain is not usually caused by a single injury, like twist or fall.
