New Look: Looks like it is time for a new evaluation of your condition. The force needed to fracture both heel bones is significant and is seen in falls of things like roof and laders. These falls can also cause injury to the back and this area needs to be examined to rule out contribution to your complaint.

Check your back: Calcaneal injuries are generally from falls. You may have injured your spine along with your feet if you are feeling pain from the pelvis down. Have a back specialist check your spine out. You may need some therapy or home exercises, but first you need a diagnosis.
