A member asked:

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Knee and heel pain: The knee and heel pain are likely due to walking a lot. Point tenderness on the knee, meaning that the pain gets worse when you push on it, is commonly a sign of bursitis. Heel pain is the most common location of pain in plantar fasciitis, which is also related to overuse. Low impact physical activity and rest are recommended as first line therapies. Please see your doctor if you need more details
