Why does the back of my feet hurt?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
If you mean : The back of your heel, this could be secondary to achilles tendonitis, or a prominent bone to the back of the heel, either a "haglund's deformity or a spur to the back of the heel. A podiatrist should be able to make a diagnosis rather quickly and offer you a treatment plan.

See a Podiatrist: Could be from injury or you could be developing achilles tendonitis.
