Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have extreme heal pain. I have been wearing an arch support but it doesn t seem to be helping. I have also been wearing shoes with cushion and support. The pain seems to be worsening and sometimes I have a dull ache up my leg. I have been taking over the counter pain relievers.
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic. I can understand your concern. In my opinion, we should get done vitamin b 12, vitamin d3 and calcium levels. Deficiency of these can alcohol cause similar kind of heel pain. So get done blood report for these nutrients. If deficiency then you will need supplements. Also get done x ray of ankle joint to rule out internal pathology. Don't worry, you will be alright. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
