What causes burning in your heels to where you almost can't walk when it's real painful.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below : Plantar Fasciitis is the number one cause of burning heel pain and is a condition which, if left untreated, can become debilitating over time. The plantar fascia is the flat band of tissue (ligament) that connects your heel bone to your toes and supports the arch of your foot. Rest, icing, stretches and the use of a proper orthotic are commonly used to treat. See a podiatrist for proper Dx and Rx
