What Does Severe Pain In The Heels Indicate?

Hi. So I have 2 feet. On my right foot I get really bad heel pain and cry because if the pain. On my left foot the toe muscles and the top of my u foot also gets sore but only half of the top of my foot which is the area near my toes. The pain is generally at a 6.5/10 but when really sore can get to an 8/10. Can you tell me what s going on asap.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The symptoms are suggestive of something called plantar fasciitis. As of now you can take analgesics like Diclofenac or Aceclofenac. Do not gain extra weight as over weight and obesity can worsen the symptoms. If pain persist despite common analgesics, you might require steroid injection. Consult an orthopedic and get evaluated in that case.

Wishing you good health.

Thanks.
