Are there ways to make pain in my heels go away?

Heel pain: The quickest and most simple treatment is too stretch your calf muscles, wear a good shoe with a little heel to it and buy an over the counter arch support from an athletic shoe store.

See a podiatrist: You need an evaluation. Try ice, orthotics, anti-inflammatory medication.

Combo treatment. : If you have plantar fasciitis, and hurt most with the first few steps in the morning, the more you can do together, the better: #1: supportive shoes. #2: firm inserts or orthotics. #3: oral antiinflammatories (check with your doctor). #4: stretching your foot and calf. #5: icing (10 min at a time). You may also need physical therapy or cortisone injections, or eswt if available in your area.
