Heel pain after running

Heel pain after running can be really affect your motivation and quality of life. If you are like me, I love to run, but hated the pain that came with it. I found out that there could actually be a couple of reasons for it. The first was that I was developing a heel spur. Dealing with heel spur pain can be done. The other possible cause was plantar fasciitis, which with the proper plantar fasciitis exercise program can also be done. Let's look at both and figure out which you a likely dealing with.

Don't buy insoles that aren't proven to work medically!

*THESE INSOLES ARE MEDICALLY PROVEN!*

A heel spur is a part of the heel bone that begins to damage the plantar fascia. You will experience a lot of heel pain specifically, but not so much pain in the ball of your foot, or the arch of the foot. There are surgical options to releive that pain, but typically are not needed. Plantar Fasciitis can occur due to a heel spur, or can develope independant of a heel spur. It is the inflammation of the plantar fascia, and will be indicated by pain throughout the bottom of your foot.

A medically proven insole will typically be all that is required. And at Sharp Heel Pain in Foot you can find out more about them. When worn during your runs, They will provide support around the base of the heel to prevent the bone from further damaging the plantar fascia. However, it is abolsutely critical that you get an insole that is medically proven. There are a lot of insoles on the market that will put your heel, foot, and ankle at risk for injury if used during athletic activities. The medically proven insole that my doctor recommend is the Athlete's Pain insole. It will provide support around the base of the heel and gentle support to the plantar fascia itself. In fact, they won the competition for THE BEST INSOLES for stopping foot pain.

Finally after using the right insole and the plantar fasciitis exercise program that my doctor had given me I was able to return to running pain free. :)
