Re: Heel Pain

Mine improves a lot when I wear my Birks and my Chaco sandals when I'm in
the house. Rolling a tennis ball in the arch when sitting can also relieve
the pain a bit. It's those first few steps after sitting or being in bed
that are the killers. The arch and the ligaments aren't stretched out yet.

still sounds like plantar faciatis Jeanne. If your heels hurt when going
barefoot...that's almost a sure sign. Wearing shoes almost always takes
the
intense pain away..."almost" and only the intense...it still hurts some

ah gee, thanks for starting this thread, Kate.
i read thru the info i found online about the plantar faciaitis.
i dont think it is that as i have a good arch and the sites i read said
it
usually came with flat feet.

its the actual pressure on the heel when i walk barefoot that hurts.
its not intense pain but enough to annoy me.
so i have to wear, pretty much all the time, some kind of well
cushioned
shoe.
right now i have two pairs, one is a slip on running shoe, the other a
slip on tennis shoe.
both have enough cushioning to fix me properly.
i just find it annoying to have to put them on when i get up in middle
of
the night to go to the loo.

i dont think it is a spur either. as it sometimes doesnt hurt, very
occasionally tho.
i think i probably damaged it on the last trip to usa, all that walking
thru airport concrete floor terminals without good shoes on will do it
i
guess.
yes i know it was over a year ago now but at my age i'm a slow healer.
lucky i dont have a lot of walking to do, eh.
i'll keep my ears open to other ideas to research to see if i find
anything else that it might be.
cheers,
j.

If it's heel pain == you might want to read up on plantar faciaitis.
I
have it in my right heel. Hurts like the devil. A few years ago I
felt
nearly like an invalid. Could barely walk across the room -- and when
I
did the pain was horrendous!!

craft syndrome strikes again.
i spent the whole time with sore feet and sore jaw from the walking
and
gaping in wonder.
could of been i saw sharons quilt as winner at 2005 online show.
geez, who knows. i'll never get to houston again i dont think.
right now walking round the house is an effort.
my feet are still sore. no idea why but i can not walk barefoot, need
some cushioning under the left heel or i favour that side and limp.
i really should just have a fulltime nap.
save all the hassle and nonsense here.
