I have no bump at all, but the pain is definitely in the "bursa" area. I got hit in that exact spot by a very heavy metal door and the door stop cut the area very deeply. I didn't do anything about it and it took forever to heal and that is where the pain is. I also wear backless shoes and flip-flops 24/7 (California beach gal) so I think all of this combined is the cause. I just don't know what to do. Saw my Kaiser podiatrist and amy see a different on from a different hospital. I can't sleep in the boot...ugh...and just live with it but any suggestions you have would be awesome. My pain level is pretty constant but a 4/10 so I ignore it and hope it will vanish on it's own.

Thank you for the wonderful diagram you drew on your foot! What a fantastic idea!! I was fishing about 4 months ago and I was walking up a very steep incline with rods in one hand and tackle in another and I remember feeling my right heel rrrrreeeeally stretch at a hyper extended forward angle, after that it was sore the next day but felt better after a few days. But ever since then I get soreness about once every 3-4 weeks. I had a cramp at night the other night and the next morning I literally could not step on my right foot and for almost 2 days I was limping around the house. I saw your video, iced it, elevated it at night, and took anti inflammatories and its now much much better. To make a short story long (LOL) your video really helped me out. Thank you for posting and sharing your knowledge in a creative and clear way. Make it a great day !

Greetings from Turkey. I am dealing with this problem / pain for almost 8 years. I think this video shares the most useful things to help for treatment. I am now 100% sure that my problem is "retrokalkaneal bursit" . I have a haglund bump and the pain is very near to the area that heel bone and achilles tendon meets. Within these years, I got physiotherapy, I had an injection once (4 years ago), pyhsio again, strengthening, etc... Pain goes, and comes again. In the past months it got worse, the bump got a little bit bigger and I cannot play football for a long time because of the pain. Many doctors cannot address the problem correctly. Thank you for sharing!

I’m sure I’ve finally found what has left me racked with pain for several weeks now. Thank you. In this case, it did not manifest over time, but in one brief instant. I am on my feet all day, every day at work or for recreation. I suppose this was inevitable, but I should be quite spry at 35. I was breaking down some odds and ends of firewood for smoking and miscalculated the force needed to crack a few in half via a good ol’ fashioned heel stomp. Went right through and put the full force directly onto concrete. Recoiled instantly in pain. Something was definitely wrong. X-ray at Doctor next day. Just bruising, possible stress fracture. Heel should heal properly on its own...just have some down time for 2-4 weeks. No chance. Especially at this time; that’s entirely unaffordable. I’ve been hobbling around, hiding my awkward gait whenever possible. I’m going to purchase insoles in the morning. I hope the insoles, combined with mild stretching will do the trick. I cannot go on like this for much longer. Thank you for the information.

I have a pea sized painful lump right there. It is agony to walk up hills. The lump is soft and painful to touch and 'stings' when resting. It feels like I have insects crawling up my shin and I feel a sharp crunch when caught off guard moving around at times. Doc said to give it two weeks and ring back for an physio appointment which has a 6 month waiting list. I am scared I will do more damage. This has been 5 weeks now and getting worse. Thanks for the video. Very helpful because I thought I had Achilles heel problems.

Great video. I had a couple bouts of pain in my heel so bad it literally crippled me for weeks at a time. After x-rays and exams, a doctor AND podiatrist misdiagnosed me - plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis. They gave me these calve stretches to do, similar to advice I’d seen on other videos (heel drops, wall stretches). They stressed arch support in shoes. I spent big money on orthopedic shoes. It kept coming back. Turns out I had heel bursitis - something no one had mentioned. I stopped the calf stretching and bought simple heel raisers on Amazon for less than 20 US dollars and it's worked like a miracle.

I have a lot of heel pain and was diagnosed with both heel bursitis and heel spurs in both heels. I'm 60 years old and I've been in pain for about six months. Doctor said aside from surgery to exercise and get better fitting shoes. He said the bursitis might go away but the spurs will be there until I get surgery. It's my understanding that spurs by themselves do NOT cause heel pain but bursitis does. Is that correct?

I have pain and inflammation exactly where you are describing that just doesn’t seem to go away. I also have high arches and underpronate. Would you still recommend an orthotic?

Thank you for this video, this is helpul. I gained weight since lockdock down. I think i need to lose weight. This is really painful

For months, up until a couple days ago, I had such pain and tightness back there when I'd rotate my foot/ankle (particularly inward rotation in attempt to loosen. Not sure if the issue was bursa or tendon. I only know that after I received prayer for healing, it went away. This is the second time I've had long time chronic foot related pain, and had it healed through prayer. I'm all for seeing a doctor, and have (chiropractor who specializes in feet). I'd like to know what caused it, so I can prevent it.

I sprained my ankle little over two weeks ago. I’ve have had normal pain where I sprained the ankle, but I have started to get pain exactly in this position. I trained yesterday, can I keep playing?

How often should PRP be used and at what interval?

Bought some Hoka running shoes and they aggravated mine! Been acting up since last December

Yup def have this - no spur...just overdid it - ice and heel lifts - no more running for me - calf raises will be good too - foam roll yup

I was diagnosed with chronic pain in both my heels after an injury (falling from height). The pain was so bad, it felt like my feet were on fire, worn-out and throbbing. By chance i found out the podiatrist has a pulse wave machine. I go there every 6 weeks and get this pulse therapy on the inside of my heels. I dont get the servere burning feeling anymore. After the treatment my heels feel great..but shortly after an itchyness comes back and some discomfort.

Your red dot is where my pain is. Was diagnosed with gout but this is what it is. Going to ask for Xray to rule out a spur also.

Does it help with the cracking sound while walking?

After runs or after hike , I have had a achilles tendon injury.. so , can any doctor or surgeon do to fix a my legs achilles ?

greetings doc.. Actually I suffer this calc bursitis. a bone growed on the backside of the heel. I visited the orthopedics and had steroid injections for both left and right heel. The pain in the morning after sleep was totally gone. Then I stop my exercise (badminton) and started to do it again after rested for 2 weeks. But I still feel the pain (not much) on the bursa area after the exercise. Is it too early for me doing exercise? Can this pain self-healed? Please mention some advice for me. thanks

How would you treat a posterior calcaneal spur fracture

My hot spot is at the insertion point and I'm unsure if it's the sac or the very bottom of the tendon- but some days it hurts to the point I have to lay in bed all day. There is zero swelling and no bump. Could that still potentially be bursitis? Or do all cases of bursitis have the bump/swelling? Any advice would be extremely appreciated as I'm recently unemployed, without insurance and trying to avoid an MRI. Thanks!

Can you wear compression braces for a long time? All day?

This was such a helpful video. Thank you for sharing. I saw my Podiatrist and he said it's calcification but I got hit by a very heavy door in the exact spot where the pain is. It cut deep and took forever to heal, but, there is no bump (spur) just pain. I think I'm going to try and see a different podiatrist and see what they say as it's the "bursa" area that you drew on your foot that hurts. I also live in sandals and flip-flops and backless shoes all the time (Southern California beach bum) and don't want to give them up. Any suggestions would be great. Thank you again for such an informative and pleasant video.

I have the same pain on both feet..left is more chronic than right.. the x ray says the bone spur..what should I do.

Thank you very much for making this video. I have a small but painful problem with my Retrocalcaneal Bursitus. It is self caused by wearing a pair of sneakers that I purchased last summer that were just a fraction of a size too small. They were a teeny bit uncomfortable but as they were Fabric ‘Sketchers’ I thought that over time they would stretch a bit and give slightly. This suddenly overnight changed and caused enough pain for a couple of days to prevent walking. After two to three days the problem vanished and I threw the shoes out. The problem now however is that if ever I rest my heel (subconsciously) on say a coffee table, the problem reappears and I can’t walk for a day again until the problem goes away again. In your opinion is there a permanent solution to this or is it something I will just have to live with? N.B in my normal everyday life this problem does not manifest itself in anyway, I can walk, run, stretch, jump etc with no problem. If however I Forgetfully Rest my heel on a table for 5 minutes , while say reading the paper, it’s back to square one for one or two days.

Great video! What does it mean if you can't bend your foot backwards without pain? Achilles tendonitis? Have full range of motion, just not without pain.

It can be a few things achilles tendinitis and plantar fasciitis are the most common for heel pain for sure, hope you feel better soon!

I am struggling with some minor bursitis and am very worried as I am training for a marathon if I keep cross training and the addition of the insoles, do you think it’s reasonable to think I’ll be ready in 10 weeks. I already in good shape, it’s just a matter of nipping this issue. I am 26 and very active person. I blame this new development on a new pair of shoes.

Does this get caused by gout too?

This was a very helpful video, thanks!

Even I have this problem,plus I'm flat footed as well .. please suggest me some ways to reduce the pain.. but I don't want to take painkillers. What's the way out?

Just one thing. I run barefoot. Does that helps or hinder.

does it hurt more after sitting for long periods if you have this?

So I tore my ligament years ago and I’ve always used an ankle brace when doing sports since then now I have Retrocarcaneal bursitis and have been trying to treat it to get back into playing tennis. Could you recommend me a good combo of ankle support and heel support for flat feet so I can be as protected as possible? Thanks in advance
