Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist 's  Response
hi,

thank you for providing the brief history of you.

As you have heel spur, and already in medication , I will advice you to first arrange for a silicon heel pad for the spur, as with the silicon heel pad there will be less pressure on the spur and the inflammation will subside.

Also, I will advice you to undergo physical therapy as it will help you to reduce pain and inflammation by Therapeutic ultrasound therapy and TENS therapy. Even you need to undergo some exercises for the feet to make the muscles stronger.

In my clinical practice, most patients with heel spur responds well to physical therapy.
