Heel Spur / Plantar Fasciitis
H eel spur / plantar fasciitis affects men and women equally. It is a condition in which the bottom of the heel is extremely painful. A heel spur is a bony overgrowth on the bottom of your heel bone. The heel spur is usually a result of an inflamed ligament (plantar fascia) on the bottom of the foot that attaches to the heel bone. Constant abnormal pulling of this ligament irritates the heel bone and the body lays down a bone spur as a protective mechanism. The patient usually complains of pain with the first step in the morning, some relief following activity, but returning after extended amounts of time standing or walking.
This condition is a constellation of many causes; overweight, ill fitting shoes, bio-mechanical problems (mal-alignment of the heel), gout, pronation (a complex motion including outward rotation of the heel and inward rotation of the ankle) and

PLANTAR FASCIITIS
ANATOMY
The plantar fascia is a thick, broad, inelastic band of fibrous tissue that courses along the bottom (plantar surface) of the foot. It is attached to the heel bone (calcaneus) and fans out to attach to the bottom of the metatarsal bones in the region of the ball of the foot. Because the normal foot has an arch, this tight band of tissue (plantar fascia) is at the base of the arch. In this position, the plantar fascia acts like a bowstring to maintain the arch of the foot.
Figure 1 : Lateral (Side ) View of Foot Plantar fasciitis refers to an inflammation of the plantar fascia. The inflammation in the tissue is the result of some type of injury to the plantar fascia. Typically, plantar fasciitis results from repeated trauma to the tissue where it attaches to the calcaneus. Figure 2 : Plantar (Bottom) View of Foot This repeated trauma often results in microscopic tearing of the plantar fascia at or near the point of attachment of the tissue to the calcaneus. The result of the damage and inflammation is pain.
If there is significant injury to the plantar fascia, the inflammatory reaction of the heel bone may produce spike-like projections of new bone called heel spurs. The spurs are not the cause of the initial pain of plantar fasciitis, they are the result of the problem. Most heel spurs are painless. Occasionally, they are associated with pain and discomfort and require medical treatment or even surgical removal

Heel Pain
Information for health professionals on heel pain and plantar fasciitis
Heel pain is common and can be due to a number of conditions. The calcaneus (heel bone) is the largest bone in the foot and is the first to hit the ground when walking.
The anatomy of heel pain:
The heel bone is designed to be the first contact the foot has with the ground. The achilles tendon inserts into the back of the heel bone (calcaneus) and a very strong ligament along the bottom of the foot attaches to the bottom of the heel bone (the plantar fascia). Several small muscles also attach to the heel bone above the insertion of the plantar fascia. Given the forces of walking that the heel bone is subjected to and the pull of all these ligaments and muscles, then it is not surprising that heel pain is so common.
The causes of heel pain:
There is no one cause of heel pain. Whole text books have been written on

Heel spurs
Definition
A heel spur is a bony projection on the sole (plantar) region of the heel bone (also known as the calcaneous). This condition may accompany or result from severe cases of inflammation to the structure called plantar fascia. This associated plantar fascia is a fibrous band of connective tissue on the sole of the foot, extending from the heel to the toes. Description
Heel spurs are a common foot problem resulting from excess bone growth on the heel bone. The bone growth is usually located on the underside of the heel bone, extending forward to the toes. One explanation for this excess production of bone is a painful tearing of the plantar fascia connected between the toes and heel. This can result in either a heel spur or an inflammation of the plantar fascia, medically termed plantar fascitis. Because this condition is often correlated to a decrease in the arch of the foot, it is more prevalent after the age of six to eight years, when the arch is fully developed.
One frequent cause of heel spurs is an abnormal motion and mal-alignment of the foot called pronation. For the foot to function properly, a certain degree of pronation is required. This motion is defined as an inward action of the foot, with dropping of the inside arch as one plants the heel and advances the weight distribution to the toes during walking. When foot pronation becomes extreme from the foot turning in and dropping beyond the normal limit, a condition known as excessive pronation creates a mechanical problem in the foot. In some cases the sole or bottom of the foot flattens and becomes unstable because of this excess pronation, especially during critical times of walking and athletic activities. The portion of the plantar fascia attached into the heel bone or calcaneous begins to stretch and pull away from the heel bone.

    Heel Spurs
    Heel spurs are bony protrusions on the bottom of the foot, caused by continuous pulling of the ligament that runs across the sole. Runners and others who are hard on their feet are very likely to get them, especially if their feet turn in (pronation) when they run. (That excess movement just adds to the ligament pulling.) Those with high arches are also more likely to develop spun. "A lot of people think that because they have heel pain, it's a spur," says Terry Spilken, D.P.M., a podiatrist and adjunct faculty member at the New York College of Podiatric Medicine in New York City. "But we also have to rule out other conditions such as arthritis and bursitis. The only way to properly diagnose a heel spur is with an x-ray." Once that's done, here's how to take the hurt out of your spurs. Don't walk au naturel.

Spurs are knobs of unwanted bone that grow on the bottoms of your feet. They start when the main ligament that runs across your sole and connects to the heel gets irritated. Spurs are a common problem for runners and other folks who are hard on their feet. The natural remedies in this chapter—in conjunction with medical care and used with your doctor’s approval—may help prevent or relieve the pain of heel spurs, according to some health professionals.

    CARING FOR YOUR FEET Plantar Fasciitis

    Description
    Symptoms Causes Custom Treatments ... Non-Custom Treatments The two most common causes of pain in the bottom of the heel, the arch, or both the heel and the arch, are plantar fasciitis and heel spurs. Plantar fasciitis is an inflammation of the plantar fascia. The plantar fascia is a thick ligamentous/fibrous band on the bottom of the foot that is attached to the heel, and runs forward to insert into the ball of the foot. Plantar fasciitis is a painful inflammation of this band, which usually occurs at its attachment to the heel; however, the inflammation and pain of plantar fasciitis can occur anywhere on the plantar fascia. A Heel Spur is a piece of calcium or bone that sticks out from the bottom of the heel bone, and lies within the fibers of the plantar fascia. When walking, the spur digs into the plantar fascia and causes small micro-tears in the plantar fascia. This produces inflammation and pain in the heel, which at times may radiate into the arch. The chief diagnostic sign of these problems is pain in the bottom of the heel or arch when first standing, which gradually improves with walking. This pain may later return with continued walking. The pain usually subsides after a period of rest.

It often occurs as a result of daily activities and exercise. The heel bone (calcaneus) is the largest bone in the foot and the heel is the first part of the foot to contact the ground during walking. Two structures located on the bottom (sole) of the foot are primarily associated with heel pain: the plantar fascia, a band of fibrous connective tissue, and the flexor digitorum brevis muscle, which supports the arch and flexes the four small toes. Normally, as the foot absorbs the weight of the body during walking, the arch begins to flatten and the plantar fascia and the flexor digitorum brevis muscle maintain the arch and stabilize the foot (see

    What is a Heel Spur?
    A heel spur is a hook of bone that can form on the heel bone of the foot. Heel spurs are associated with plantar fasciitis. Heel spurs can cause extreme pain in the rearfoot. The pain is most intense while standing or walking. What Causes Heel Spurs? Heel spurs develop as an abnormal growth in the heel bone due to calcium deposits that form when the plantar fascia stretches and pulls away from the heel. The plantar fascia is a ligament located at the bottom of your foot. This stretching of the plantar fascia is usually the result of flat feet or unusually high arches. Can Heel Spurs be Treated? Yes. The treatment will depend on what caused the heel spurs. If the cause is flat feet, an orthotic with rearfoot posting and longitudinal arch support can help reduce the over-pronation caused by flat feet. Other common treatments include:
    • stretching exercises rest applying ice packs to the affected area anti-inflammatory medicine losing weight wearing shoes that have a cushioned heel that absorbs shock elevating the heel with the use of a heel cradle, heel cup, or orthotic.

    How to Identify Heel Spurs
    You don't have to be an athlete to develop heel spurs. Caused by an excessive bony growth on the heel, spurs can result in the plantar fascia a ligament that's attached to the foot to pull away from the heel bone. Knowing the symptoms of a heel spur will help prevent further injury to the heel. Steps: Suspect you may have a heel spur if you experience chronic pain in your heel. Especially if the pain occurs in the morning, when your feet first the floor. If heel pain eases after you've walked a bit, this can be a symptom of heel spur. Consider that you've developed a heel spur if you find you're walking on your toes or altering your stride to reduce heel pain. By changing your gait, you are easing the tug of your heel ligament, which, in turn, lessens heel pain. Palpate your heel. A heel spur will feel like a small, bony growth, at least .13 inches or longer, on the underside of your heel. The spur end tends to point towards the toes. If you feel a bony growth, you may have a heel spur.
