What Causes Persistent Heel Pain In The Right Foot?
The heel on my right foot is painful when stepping on it. I have not injured it but this began 2 months ago and was intermittent, but now it is constant. No swelling or bruising has appeared. What could it be? How can I mitigate the pain? Is there any treatment to cure this? YYYY@YYYY

Hello,
The symptoms are consistent with conditions like plantar fasciitis.
As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated. In that case, you might require steroid injection to heel.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
