A member asked:
What can i do to walk to school with a huge sore on the heel?

Consider crutches: If the sore is huge, i would be curious to know how you got it and if you have any medical conditions like diabetes. If so, this sore needs to be looked at by a medical doctor. (podiatrist).

Try not to: Depending if the sore is on the back or bottom. The best thing is to stay off of it. See a podiatrist for treatment.
