heel pain

[Guest guest]

if its due to spurs, taping your feet does wonders....

use a paper type like from the drs office (have found at Meijer's), and tape the

bottom from the back to the front, (it will look and feel as if you are walking

on tape) but not excessively tight...( I will make more then one cross with the

tape)

then take a long piece and and tape from one side of the foot starting at the

end of the littlest toe(where it attaches to the foot) to the heel and around

and ending just behind the biggest toe (where it attaches to the foot)

I had the same issue, this is what I did to fix mine:

 

 

 

#1 stop taking any calcium supplement

 

#2 Start taking magnesium

 

#3 Make sure your treadmill is not on incline, it should be as flat as

possible

 

#4 When you start back up walk not run for the first few weeks

 

#5 Make sure you stretch your Plantar muscle,, before you run and

periodically through-out the day.

 

 

 

Good luck I hope this helps!

As one of my New Years resolutions, I've taken up running again. I

swim and bike regularly but running is something I haven't done for

over 20 years. I've 6 feet four inches tall and weigh right at 200 lbs

so weight should not be the obvious answer to my problem. I purchased

new New Balance cross trainers and I run on a treadmill. The result is

inflammation in my left heel. I'd prefer not to consume too many Aleve

tablets so what course of action would others recommend to overcome

this inflammation?

BTW I've stopped the running program and my right shin and hips

sometimes ache now after long walks.
