Heel Pain

[julieanne]

Hi,

I am experiencing heel pain. It doesn't seem to go into my plantar. The pain in my heel hurts when I dorsi flex my foot and raise my leg (ie doing a hamstring stretch). No pain during plantar flexion. I am a runner but it doesn't hurt when I run. I am a little confused. Any help/advice would be really appreciated.

Many Thanks

Julie

Hi
Does it hurt when you weight bear?
When is it worst?
Is the pain localised to directly under the heel?

Hi Heidi,

No pain during weight bearing, it only ever hurts when I dorsi flex my foot and raise my leg. Yes the pain is localised directly under the heel. I am just concerned that running isn't helping but at the same time it never hurts when I run and resting doesn't help either.

Many Thanks

Julie

Try stretching your calf muscles several times a day over the next fortnight and see if that makers a difference. Calf tightness is often to blame in some part of foot/heel pain
