Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I recently went on a driving holiday and found that my right heel was becoming extremely uncomfortable and painful where it connected with the floor when I was driving. This pain has continued on and off and now I am experiencing sharp pains in the same area that feel like I am being pricked with a pin. This is the same foot that I broke 16 months ago. It s also quite stiff in the morning or if I have been sitting for a long period.

What Causes Sharp Pain In The Heel?
Hello, I read carefully your query and understand your concern. The symptoms seem to be related to Achilles tendinitis. I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen to relieve the pain. I also suggest using cold compresses to relieve the symptoms. Hope my answer was helpful. If you have further queries feel free to contact me again. Kind regards! Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi General &Family Physician
