Abstract

A 48-year-old male presented to our clinic with a primary complaint of intense right heel pain. The pain was localized to the anatomical area corresponding to the medial calcaneal tubercle. The patient described that the pain is most intense while engaging in walking (especially in the first arise in the morning and get to his feet). Some of the aggravating factors described include pain upon compression activity of the heels, i.e., standing up after rest, prolonged walking. Relieving factors include unloading the affected foot (via sitting or elevation). There was no history of direct trauma. He rated the pain as 7/10 on a visual analogue scale.
