Causes

While doctors debate causes, we do know one thing with certainty;

Heel spurs alone DO NOT produce heel pain.


Other than that, heel pain can be a result of many conditions including;
An inflamed ligament, nerve or soft tissue sac.
Loss of cushioning on the bottom of the heel.
A foot shape (flat feet or high arches) which places stress on the heel.
Systemic health problems such as gout, infection and arthritis
