Thank you for your explanation! It help to know what is going on with the back of my feet. It was definitely a shoe that caused the tenderness. I had put ice and taking Motrin for a few days, however, the pain continues. I was thinking to buy a pair of backless shoes and in your video you recommend the same. Hopefully, I will feel better with the new shoes. Thank you!!

That comes from two things: 1. Walking long hours daily Like a person working 2 jobs. Walking alot Feet not getting enough rest Overworked many hours on Feet. 2. Heel rubbing against shoe or boots. Constant Friction cause inflammation. Heres what everyone should do. Use electric tape cost near $10 a roll get white or black or blue doesn't matter the colors. Tape 4 short strips On back of heel. And wear 3 pairs socks. 3 protect your skin from blisters and calluses. The electric tape works as a wall barrier.

[@leticiabufoni7239]

Hey I have been having pain in the back of my heal for over 8 months now it’s swollen it hurts when I lift my foot up I can barely walk so you think I am gonna need surgery I already have appointments at the doctors just looking for other answers ,great explanation 🤙

[@OrthoEvalPal]

Hi Cody, if it’s a bursitis or tendinitis, it’s more likely you would have conservative treatment before jumping into surgery.

[@Teleman01]

I'm dealing with that right now. Basically pain on the outside of my ankle, but the pain is actually located on the side of my heel. The only reason I got it was because I decided to walk up a bunch of stairs, then walk back down. I'm talking probably 100 stairs or more. I think I got this pain because I haven't worked those muscles or tendons in years because I had such bad knee pain. Now that I've gotten a knee replacement, I'm hiking around a lot more. But I'm also finding that because I haven't worked these muscle groups etc. for so long, it's easy to damage them. I hope this eventually goes away.

[@OrthoEvalPal]

Be sure to get back to activity gradually

[@TheRealCheckmate]

Does peripheral neuropathy from type 2 diabetes ever present like that in that exact spot? I have that on both feet, but much more painful on the left foot. I just assumed it was from neuropathy, but now I'm wondering if it's a problem related to the attachment point of the Achilles tendon. This problem came on relatively quickly and shows no signs of ever healing.

[@marzenap1179]

I can’t walk much, have x-tray and my ortopedic doctor is not helping much. Please help me. Thank you

[@sts.556]

put a tennis ball on the floor , put your foot on ball and work that ball around up and down the bottom of your foot you will feel the tight spots , just keep doing every night , you might have to stop cause it can get a little painful , just work that around , difficult at first chasing that ball but keep on , you will feel it loosing up that tendon and in most cases fixes the problem , fyi

[@obibadeemusic9966]

Got the same type of pain when I changed my car clutch cos I had to really press on the clutch down a lot.

[@j7ndominica051]

I've had a superficial blister from tight boots many times, but never a deep inflammation. But now my foot is swollen behind the tendon for no apparent reason. No injury or increase of stress. It hurts really bad in the morning after sleep. Walking pumps the inflammation out. Cold temperature is deceptive. The pain comes back worse like a tsunami wave afterwards. Ibuprofen and Ketoprofen are surprisingly effective.

[@skipd82]

Aspirin or anti inflammatory medication helps with pain keep it levitated and icing it helps the healing process. Stay off the foot as much as possible.

All are good suggestions.

[@GeorgeLista]

2 years of agony in the heal. Driving my crazy.

[@U2GuitarTutorials]

My pain is mostly when I touch only. It’s on the back of the heel to the sides. It’s a sensitive bruise-like pain. The tendon is not sore walking or touching. It’s when I press on the side ankle bone on both sides of tendon. It’s not the specific areas in this video. Is there birsa on the back sides of the tendon? I don’t feel any issues in the space under the tendon just before the bone.

[@OrthoEvalPal]

There are 2 bursae behind the heel. Just make sure there isn't something rubbing it and causing direct irritation. Best of luck!

[@U2GuitarTutorials]

@@OrthoEvalPal Thank you for responding! The two spots are not rubbing anything. I haven't changed shoes. I can run/walk with no pain (maybe a little pain running), but when I pinch the back of my heel, it's very sensitive. It's like my bone is bruised. Been resting for over a week and only a little better. Time for doc I guess.

[@ankur4140]

​@@U2GuitarTutorials Hi, I am facing the same issue. I have a sharp pain when I press it using my fingers. How did you recover from it?

[@U2GuitarTutorials]

@@ankur4140 Not sure what I did. Mostly just stopped running for a while and rested. Did some calf stretches on stairs also. Hope it doesn't come back.

[@ankur4140]

@@U2GuitarTutorials In my case if I rest it goes away but if I walk too much some day or maybe run 2-3 km. It comes back again. I did visit an orthopedic doctor and he told me that it's because your body doesn't get the appropriate amount of nutrients. He gave me a bunch of supplements that I have to eat for the next 2 weeks. Hope that things improve.

[@omarrahim995]

How do you differentiate between superficial calcaneus bursitis and Haglunds deformity? Even thou I'm absolutely sure the cause for whatever is at the back of my heel is my shoe (literally started on one foot a few days after I bought the pair), so maybe bursitis? but it feels pretty hard and looks like Haglunds deformity?

I was skateboarding and landed on my heel in an awkward way and its hurt since. It's been about two weeks. Ima a skater so I just push it off cuz everything seems to heal in time. When I reduce the swelling with ibuprofen I can walk pretty normal but once it wears off I can barely put pressure on it and i have to limp around. My foot is barely swollen to the eye and isn't discolored but its hurts like crazy. Might just be worth a doctor bill that I can't afford

I ve had this bursitis on the calcaneous bone there. But in my other foot. I was at a trampoline park a few weeks ago and jumped on a wall trampoline and it tweaked this area on my good foot!!! needless to say it’s been painful but gradually getting better. Make sure you have a good warmup before skating (I run) and I’ve had to make sure I wear a soft back shoe or it will be killing me! Good luck!

[@ahmedabouayyad]

I've got the same problem, been dealing with it for 8 years now, but this year i landed weird on a nollie flip with my whole weight on my back toes, and then boom my heel bone area felt like it completely ripped off. Can't put any weight on it now, I only kept skating on front foot tricks like crooks etc after the injury, thought this way it will heal up, but when I mess up a trick I be having to land on my hurt foot, which gets it back to that strong pain I first got off it. Any idea to heal this up would be much appreciated guys.

This is probably what’s causing it but idk why all of a sudden I feel like I need to crack it! It feels like it’s stuck on something. when I have to stand on tiptoes, especially when I’m lifting something heavy up high at work, I get this horrible sharp and tearing feeling in my achilles tendon area or just the back of the heel.
