What Causes Pain And Discomfort In The Heel?
Hi, I recently have been experiecing some discomfort in my heel on the side and on my achilles tendon, mainly on top of the heel bone. The pain or discomfort is more intense in the morning and if I put my feet up and try standing again. What could this be?

Hello,
As pain at the heel and the tendoachillies can be related to the plantar fasciitis.
Doing hot water fermentation, the range of motion exercise, foot muscle strengthening exercises, ankle toe movements, stretching the tendoachillies, using heel silicone pad in shoe should help relief from the symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
