Don't Let Heel Pain Slow You Down
We Can Help!
Are you experiencing heel pain?
You are not alone. Heel pain is a common foot problem that can occur at any age, affecting both men and women.
It is often characterized by a sharp pain or discomfort felt in the bottom of the heel, making it difficult to walk, stand, or run.
At South Hill Foot & Ankle Clinic, we understand how frustrating and limiting heel pain can be. That's why we offer comprehensive heel pain treatment to help you get back on your feet and enjoy your daily activities.
There are several causes of heel pain, including plantar fasciitis, heel spur syndrome, Achilles tendonitis, stress fractures, and bursitis.
These conditions can be caused by various factors such as overuse, improper footwear, sudden injuries, and ageing.
If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, you may be suffering from heel pain:
Sharp or stabbing pain in the heel
Pain that worsens when walking or standing
Pain that is worse in the morning or after prolonged periods of rest
Swelling or redness in the heel
At South Hill Foot & Ankle Clinic, our experienced podiatrists offer personalized and effective heel pain treatment based on the underlying cause and severity of your condition.
We may recommend a combination of the following treatments:
Physical therapy and stretching exercises
Custom orthotics or shoe inserts
Shockwave therapy
Medications for pain and inflammation
Extracorporeal pulse activation technology (EPAT)
We always strive to provide conservative, non-surgical treatments before considering surgery. However, if conservative treatments are not effective, we may recommend surgical intervention.
