Heel of my foot is killing me...is there anything over-the-counter i can buy to help it?

NSAID's like: Motrin can be purchased over the counter. But if you need to seek medical eval - do so.Take care.

Heel spur: you can try foam or gel heel inserts and comfortable footwear. I would suggest a podiatry consultation. You can try OYV anti inflammatory medication if not allergic.

Heel pain: I do not know whether your heal hurts at the back or the front. Two of the most common reasons for heal pain are Achilles tendinitis or Plantar fasciitis. Either way you could try either a heal pad or an arch support which can cushion and protect the heal.

Heel: The general reference to heel pain is at the plantar and medial aspect . See your podiatrist for an evaluation and real help .

Yes: Likely this is plantar fasciitis. You can do stretching. You can buy a plantar night splint or a Straussberg sock to help at night. Appropriate shoe gear and not going barefoot is essential.

Yes...ibuprofen : For heel pain it is often overuse. Ice helps very much and ibuprofen taken over the counter for a few days can help too. If the pain lingers, see a foot and ankle specialist as early intervention can help resolve pain quickly.
