🔴🟣🔵 I have a heel fracture but it’s not in the back. It’s straight across at the middle between end of arch and beginning of heel. (I have Cavus feet and assume that’s related) Would love help and info on this. My dx was from MRI and my dr isn’t extremely educational. Just boot and come back 6 weeks. Would live more info thanks

Awesome that you just posted this I have felt like I had this for 2 weeks now and it’s not getting better

Going through this currently. Your video is absolutely wonderful! Thank you!

Thanks dc

Thank you for your info.

My L heel pain, as described in your video, worsened greatly from walking for longer periods along the beach. I had worked up to 45 min walking on the treadmill. On nice days I walk the beach instead. The sand and small rocks and incline works the small muscles in the calf and ankles more. I appreciate your suggestions and will apply them.

Great info, thx!👍

Great work dear!

Thanks for the help. My heel hurts off and on. Swollen around the fibulae bone. I have worn the boots. Compression socks. Most everything. But it still happens. I wear hoka shoes too. But i don’t wear all the time. So back to what u suggest. Thanks doctor. You are right on with all u suggestions. Great video!!

Thought it was planter fasciitis for a year. Eventually I was crying at night. Found a fracture in my heel in an MRI. Went to a doctor who listened and cared. 1 week into the boot.

I think that is where I'm at now. PT helps but the heel pain is not diminishing when I'm on it. I am going to ask for an MRI to be sure it's not a stress fx.. I had this injury since July. Thanks so much for your info and video's. I appreciate your dedication.❤❤️

Hi do you have any exercise advice for a intra articular fractured calcaneum non surgery healed coming upto 6 months now. I'm weight bearing but walking with crutches I feel pressure under ankle around the talus when trying to push off without crutches.

Thanks to your video I realized immediately I have a heel stress fracture. Searching for "heel pain" on the web the only thing that comes up over and over is Plantar Fasciitis. I knew I didn't have that because I've had it in the past. Did the "sides of the heel" squeeze test and: OUCH! I've just ordered the Hoka Bondi 7 shoes you recommend and plan to wear them inside and outside at all times until my foot heals. The strange thing in my case is that I am not a runner, I don't do any high impact exercises, and I have not done anything to strain or injure the foot which has the fracture. I only take light walks. In fact recently I have used my feet very little because I was recovering from a sprain on my other foot - my sprain had just gotten better enough that I cold start taking longer walks and now I suddenly have a stress fracture on the other foot - and so once again I can't walk! The only thing I can think of is that I know I don't have very good arches on my feet and the shoes I have been wearing (Ontisuka Tigers) probably don't have very good support. Is it possible to get a stress fracture simply from walking in shoes that don't offer good support? Has never happened to me before in my life. I am 51.

Good info 👍🏻

I got a calcaneus avulsion fracture on 25 November 2021 and surgery on 2 December 2022. I had tried to walk since 2 weeks ago with two crutches. I didn't seek a physiotherapist and tried to do it by myself. Can you give me some information on how to do proper physiotherapy? Thank you in advance..

I need one of these on tarsal coalition

3 week ago had bad heal pain 1/2 way through a 10 mile run. Finally got into doctor 2 days ago. X-ray shows a stress fracture I left foot calcaneus. No pain though EXcept when try to run. Where high padded Hoka shoes with super/feet orthotics. Doc said didn’t need boot, continue leg work out and ride bike. Follow up in 2 weeks. Q: how bad can my stress fracture be? If only “prescription” is “no running or jumping”?

Made a comment on your upcoming 2021 vid. And thought a vid. Were you talk about what types and causes of foot pain make it unbearable to walk or put pressure on.

Hello! Could you please do a video of some exercises for a broken/depressed calcaneus which was a result of jumping off of a great height? I have had surgery and am now about 3 weeks post-surgery and am starting to rehabilitate! thank you :)

Just curious how your rehab was. I fell off a 2 story roof and shattered both of my calcaneus. I had surgery on both and had to be stuck in a wheelchair for 12 weeks. Just started walking again 4 weeks ago.....I feel like I'll never be normal again.😢

I had a calcaneus fracture in my right foot. And they had to put a screw in my foot. Now the foot is real tight. How can I get it back to normal or atleast close ?

These are good for an acual calcanial fractureas well right? I've done 4 months or recovery. it's time for PT! thank u

I’m a barefoot/minimal shoe runner but I recently fell off a stage and landed on my heel (Unrelated to any barefoot running) I have a calcaneus stress fracture. I do plan on returning to barefoot running, however I know this could potentially take a long time. How long would you recommend waiting until I can start running even in conventional running shoes?

Make sure you are getting nutrients to support bone growth. (FYA Doctors are not taught nutrition.) Vitamin D (15 min mid day sun) Vitamin K2 Vitamin C (foods to build collagen) Boron (from raisins and pears, etc) Eggs (most complete protein to build framework) Avoid glyphosate (eat organic) since it chelates nutrients. Magnesium (citrate or biglysinate) Calcium (from foods) Alkaline diet (to reduce acid levels so your body doesn’t take calcium from bones to buffer) Phosphorus Potassium (avocados) Zinc and copper (liver) Manganese Silicone Etc.

I had a Calcaneus Fracture and I treated it at hospital 2years ago. But I still feel pain. Doctor say everything is ok and nothing wrong. I went to other Doctor and he gives me medicine. I took peel everyday, but I don't know it is good or not. I am still pain and somethimes I have headache. I don't know if it is because of drug. other doctor said I need surgery. and I am wating the surgery. But I don't know this surgery really need?? I am worry my calcaneus getting worse afeter surgerry. All the doctor said different answer. I don't know why.

There is a high chance of osteoarthritis afterward through the subtalar joint if a fracture has occurred here. This is the tough part of these types of fractures. They can have high complication rates even when done properly. Personally, I would avoid surgery for these if the shape of the calcaneus is close to normal (these are usually the ones where some doctors recommend doing no surgery); good shoes and excellent support later are key for these types of fractures afterward, and in my opinion,o n is what results in the best outcomes long term.

Ouch! Does it gradually get more sore?

Placing a wool sock over a compression sock eliminates the compression socks' ability to do it's job. It's also not a good idea to use an orthotic with a walking boot. I know this from experiences based on this video. Keep the boot on for 12 weeks to fully heal the heel fracture. Talk to your doctor. I also DO NOT recommend doing any form of physical therapy on your foot during that period as it may refracture or tear the ligaments, tendons, and bones that are needing to heal, causing more irritation and prolonging the healing process.

WHOSE ANKLE ARE YOU HOLDING ANY WAY, IS IT REAL ?

You sound like an orthotic sales man :) Even though your video is very informative and true, you manipulated the skeletal foot to sell the orthotic. People who hurt their legs and want advice need objective professional opinion.

I have no stake in any of these products, honestly the tiny amount that comes in as an Amazon affiliate is nowhere close to even worth making these videos, I would argue any return on individual video product sales is much less than simply staying 15 mins longer in clinic

Well this guy gave more than most. Most will just charge you for a thousand things, get a bunch of x-rays, orthotic equipment, etc. If the symptom is pretty obvious a stress fracture due to overuse and poor footwear like it is mine with 99% certainty without all of that, this general advise is very helpful
