Conventional Calcaneal Spur Treatment
Many treatment options exist, and good results are often observed. Generally, a calcaneal spur develops when proper care is not given to the foot and heels. It is often seen as a repetitive stress injury, and thus lifestyle modification is typically the most basic of management strategies.
To alleviate heel spur pain, begin doing foot and calf workouts. Strong muscles in the calves and lower legs will help take the stress off your bone, and thus help cure/prevent heel spurs. Icing the area is a great way to get immediate pain relief.
