Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
Initial treatment is directed toward decreasing inflammation and avoiding reinjury when possible. Local cold application can help when the location of the bone spur is accessible. Anti-inflammatory medications, administered both orally and by local injection, are commonly used, depending on the location of the spur. Local mechanical measures, such as orthotics, or shoe inserts, and local bone spur pads might be considered, depending on the location of the bone spur.
lose weight if needed and then, for everyone, maintaining a healthy weight. It may also include exercise.
Wishing you good health...
Regards.
