Hi The heel pain may be due to various reasons. It may be due to Achilles' tendon injury or some form of arthritis. Your history of morning pain points towards some kind of arthritis but can be some injury also. I would advice you for an orthopaedic consultation. You may be advised some basic investigations including X-ray that may throw light on the posssible cause. I hope the above information helps you. Thanks for writing into healthcaremagic.
