A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your Podiatrist: You should see your podiatrist or pcp asap. Sounds like a painful tendinitis or fascitis. May need a short course of steroids and/or anti-inflamatories. Resting protocol and some physical therapy. Xrays will help to determine any pathology involving the heel bone or tissues around the heel bone.
