A member asked:
I have pain in the heel of my foot after walking over a crack on a sidewalk. because i wear hard orthotics it is hard to get relief in that area.

Needs an evaluation: Orthotics are only a part of the treatment plan for heel pain. There is a triangle format of treatment where you start with the easy stuff and work your way up. Have you had any injections? How about CAM walker? how about physical therapy. Check in with your Podiatrist to get a better explanation.
