Neuropathy: Even though Charcot's arthropathy is usually associated with a loss of sensation in the foot and ankle, a painful neuropathy can coexist with the loss of sensation. The nerve damage (neuropathy) may be starting higher up than the foot. Start with your primary care physician or your endocrinologist if you have diabetes. The painful heel is not typically part of the Charcot's arthropathy.
