Heel Spur & Plantar Fasciitis
ایڑی کا درد
That first agonising step in the morning — treated without an operation.
Many patients avoid an operation
This is one of the conditions where treatment often succeeds without surgery. Every case differs, though — and if an operation is genuinely the right course, you will be told so plainly rather than kept on treatment.
About this condition
Heel spur appears on the clinic’s printed list. The characteristic complaint is severe pain on the first few steps after waking or after sitting, easing as you walk on. Surgery is very rarely necessary; treatment addresses the pain and inflammation alongside footwear, stretching and weight where relevant.
Symptoms we see
- Sharp heel pain on the first morning steps
- Pain after sitting, easing as you walk
- Tenderness under the heel bone
- Worse on hard floors or barefoot
- Pain returning after long standing
- Stiffness in the sole and calf
Not every patient has every symptom — and the combination present is precisely what determines the remedy.
