I am experiencing heel pain, when i first get up from sitting, then it improves while i walk. is this something i should see a dr. about? heel pain

Heel pain: Heel pain that comes on when you stand is often caused by plantar fasciitis. However, other causes include achilles tendinitis, stress fracture or heel spur. Typically if no trauma it would be reasonable to see if a trial of NSAID would improve.
